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: Return

 

Submission deadline: May 15

 

Voting deadline: May 23

 

Rules:

- One entry per person.

-A photograph is defined as an image made using a camera or phone camera

-Screenshots are not allowed

- 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.

This daddy-long-legs (or crane fly) is about to be returned back to the outside, but first, I must take a nice pic. Have a look at those calypters!

This bird keeps returning each year to nest on the downspout at the corner of our house.

I'm a day late, but the poll is open now!

 

(Brain was busy with computer/phone issues yesterday. Who would have thought it could be so difficult to backup a phone... I think I don't like Apple anymore.)

Oops, we have a tie!

Should I just reopen the poll for another day or two?

That was what I did when it happened to me...

 

I was going to take a pic of my boomerang for this one but I have LOST IT :blink:

We should make tiebreaker thread for it I guess. I remember there was technical issue about reopening thread.

I tried to reopen the poll, but now it says "Poll closed on 05/25/2021 at 11:59 PM". So I guess a new thread is needed...

I edited my first post, which let me change the poll end date... Go to edit your first post and then pick the poll tab and change it.

Could it be you did that before the poll actually ended? I edited the first post and changed the end date to 05/25, but the "This poll is closed to new votes" note never went away, it just says it "closed on 05/25/2021" now instead of 05/23.

 

Anyway, I hope the tie breaker poll will get enough votes to determine a winner!  :)

How odd. IIRC it had ended when I did it - but my memory is far from 100% (see my sig !)

I edited my time after it closed so it is definitely possible, but it's quirky how to do it...

How did I completely miss this contest? :blink:

WELL - either you made like me, knew what you wanted to photograph and then lost it and then started birthday planning - or - your memory is shot...
