Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Welcome to the Photography Contest! Welcome back for another round of the DC Photography contest, come and show us what you've got! This time, the theme is: Pets Submission deadline: May 11 Voting deadline: May 25 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 April 28, 2020 (edited) so cute, Aqub! Little-Star, i would have thought that Loki would have been a black cat from House Lannister? Ruby - yeah, that's accurate! Edited April 28, 2020 by trystan Share this post Link to post
Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) She is Pipia the Chicken! (just noticed the pipio pygmies are very related to birds) She is full grown, her breed is just so small, that she can stand in my arm to have a green lunch Edited April 28, 2020 by dragoncat1207 Share this post Link to post

Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) My Cat Taz. Took the picture of him looking out the window. It's always been my favorite picture of him. It was taken on my old crappy phone and I tried cleaning it up a bit. Spoiler Edited April 28, 2020 by Syiren Share this post Link to post

Lannister collars were an ugly yellow (only seen the small picture in the catalog so I don't know what it really looked like, my boss only ordered the one I wanted) 😆 but Loki lives up to his name ¬¬ Share this post Link to post
Posted April 28, 2020 I no longer have a pet But I can use a past photo; I'll go and find one. Share this post Link to post

Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) OK so - this is Flurp, our last cat ever, for whom my scroll is named. He always lay like that when not curled into a ball. That's why we called him.... He was a rescue cat. We were told he was 18 months old. A lie - he was at least 8 - the vet said, when we promptly had to get his teeth cleaned. I think I actually got an RSPCA shelter closed down over this cat... But he had some happy years with us. Learning about outdoors (he had never been) and what grass is, and stuffs.

Posted April 29, 2020 Exactly. It was the weirdest thing ! When we got him he was called Furry. NO - just NO ! Share this post Link to post
Posted April 29, 2020 1 hour ago, Fuzzbucket said: When we got him he was called Furry. NO - just NO ! when we first got Max, he was called KittyRoo. he was named by a kid. but only many years later, it clicked. Max didn't really run, he sorta hopped like a rabbit, so you know you come up with a bunch of other names to call the kitties? well hubby called him Hoppy. some years ago, i said he hopped like a kangaroo. only he wasn't a KANGAroo, he was a KITTYroo.
