Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) Thank you to everyone who voted for me! (I'm still speechless!) The theme this round is ... no, not winter, sorry guys... and not brownies or dogs or handcuffs either, but rather purple, since I see from past competitions that a colour can be used! Let's see some entries! Purple example, to decorate the first post (bromeliad in my aunt's garden, from last year): Rules: - One entry per person - No manipulation besides basic photo adjustments (contrast, exposure, cropping, color balance, lighting, etc.) - No text or framing in the photo. A signature/watermark is just fine, but it's preferable if you don't have "O Hai Eye Hav3 T3XT" (or something similar) present in the photo. - When voting, please don't select your own image. This will ensure fairness. - You are free to submit an old photo, you don't need to take a new one just for this competition. Closing date: Sunday, December 19th (Is that enough time? since I'm a day late posting this?) Previous themes: 1: Beginning anew 2: Simplicity 3: Summer 4: Wildlife 5: Black & White 6: Food 7: Macro 8: Farewell 9: Light and Shadow 10: Urban 11: In the home 12: Travel Photography 13: Pets 14: Red 15: Coupled Animals 16: Clouds 17: Green 18: Water 19: Scenic views 20: Invertebrates 21.

Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) I'm sure it'll be fine to close it on Sunday I'll dig through my shots! Edit: Is this one purple enough? Edited December 13, 2010 by Nimrodel Share this post Link to post
Posted December 13, 2010 How I hate my memory... This time I really need to get a picture in time... I've an idea now, hah, maybe not the best thing to photograph, but he's purple for sure. And I can use it as an "in progress" picture too... (: Hopefully I might continue with him if I photograph him to this... (yes, I know, probably none of you know what I'm talking about, so I can at least say that I'm talking about Spyro) Share this post Link to post
Posted December 13, 2010 I was about to reply that I did not have any pictures fitting the theme, and because I am away from wednesday I do not have a change to take a new photo and post it before closing date. But look what I found here: Pufferfish And that is really the most purple picture I have:P The rest is more.. pink Share this post Link to post
Posted December 13, 2010 Purple, huh? Well, I guess I have some shots that go with the theme. It's just choosing one that's the problem. I'm leaning towards the first one though. http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss258/G...pg?t=1292266078 http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss258/G...pg?t=1292266184 http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss258/G...pg?t=1292265881 Share this post Link to post

Posted December 14, 2010 which one? There's this one, which is prettier, but it's less purple, and this one which is more purple, but less pretty. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 14, 2010 I like the first one best (although I do like the dragon ). Yeah, the dragon is actually made out of wood. I saw it when I went to a medieval fair with my Aunt. Was too expensive to buy, but nobody stopped me from getting a quick picture. Okay, first picture it is! My entry: http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss258/G...pg?t=1292266078 @lachrymation: I like the first one; it's got a nice calm feel about it. The other one just looks odd with the blurred flowers right in front. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) I like the first one, too, lachrymation. Gamekatt, this image has been moved or deleted? Flowers, a purple house, a purple shirt... butterflies. I know you guys will be successful in finding things! And, yes, Nim, that works! Edited December 14, 2010 by Lagie Share this post Link to post

Posted December 14, 2010 Ok, the first one it is! =D Thanks for helping me decide. I wasn't too sure which one to favour over the other... theme or quality? Share this post Link to post
Posted December 14, 2010 Btw, for this contest, I'd like the description for my picture to be "It's a red-spotted purple... but it's not purple! OH, THE IRONY." Share this post Link to post
Posted December 15, 2010 And, yes, Nim, that works! Great! Then the primula will be my entry ^^ Share this post Link to post
Posted December 15, 2010 Looks like I'm skipping this one. /has nothing purple in her folders Share this post Link to post
