Reveal hidden contents On 11/17/2019 at 8:19 PM, Aqub said: Frozen chain link fence: Reveal hidden contents This time, the theme is: Ice Rules: - One entry per person. - Picture has to be made by yourself and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. If 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. - Winner hosts the next contest.

Posted November 21, 2019 Hello dear talented photographers. I have to be away on a family matter and I doubt if I can set up the votes on a tablet (let's face it, I know I can't). So I am of necessity changing the cut off date for entries to the last day I am on my PC - November 28th. Sorry for any inconvenience, but otherwise I'd not be able to do it till well into December - and there haven't been any new entries in a few days. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 22, 2019 Mobile controls are dreadful for just about everything, totally understandable! Share this post Link to post
Posted November 28, 2019 (edited) Oh, am I too late? Oh well My photo was a cheap cheat anyway - I couldn't even get my cat to model for my photo! Edited November 28, 2019 by Ruby Eyes Share this post Link to post
