Posted June 26, 2011 There are many things I like, and books are definitely in that category. Actually, I love books. They are such wonderful things, so I figure it's time to let them be the theme of a photography contest! So, time to shoot some books, everyone An example: The Rules: - One entry per person - Picture has to be made by yourself, and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. I someone else's work is in the picture, there needs to be something extra. - 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, July 3 Good luck!

Posted June 26, 2011 Hmm... This is a unique theme. I've been waiting for a chance to enter this in a contest. :3 Sleeping Dragon I have the same book but translated in Dutch ^^ Maybe i'll try to make a picture, this seems to be an interesting theme :3 Share this post Link to post
Posted June 26, 2011 I figured that if someone doesn't already have a picture that fits the theme, then it should be very possible to attempt taking a new one. People tend to have books, after all ^^ Share this post Link to post
Posted June 27, 2011 Hmmm, this is a tough one. Luckily I have a few pics of books already, but not many. Can't choose though... I have: Thanks for all the fish The King's Men Jeremy Fisher Hitchhiker's Guide Last one mostly for laughs since it's not that great of a picture. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 1, 2011 Similarity on the book shelf: http://tinypic.com/r/213lx5l/7 I have a section of bookshelf that looks like that, too! And one with Torchwood titles. And, it's a little on the small size, but I think I'd like to use this... http://i386.photobucket.com/albums/oo301/L...avatarbook2.jpg Share this post Link to post
