MAY PHOTO CONTEST SUBMISSIONS WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL THE 24th, AND....

Last edited Sun May 20, 2018, 05:42 PM - Edit history (3)

All of the caps, bolding and italics give this post a bit of a strident, demanding feel. That is not my intention. I just want to point out some important features of the contests for those unfamiliar with them. We are a friendly, stress-free group, and we welcome everyone with an interest in photography. Now, having said that:

DUers may enter two images apiece for the MAY PHOTO CONTEST, and I will hold submissions open until the 24th. I would also like to point out that participation IS NOT limited to members of the photography group. This contest is open to DU'ers across the board; however, IT MUST BE A PHOTO THAT YOU HAVE TAKEN.

The theme for the May contest is: "Places we eat."

LINK TO THE SUBMISSIONS THREAD for the May photo contest: https://democraticunderground.com/103663881

Interpretation of "Places we eat" is not restricted to particular venues, such as restaurants and cafes. Animals as subjects are allowed. Having said that, the entries so far are very nice, and I think making a decision will be difficult.

If you want to enter, simply upload your image to a photo hosting site (such as flickr, imageshack, etc.) and then copy and paste the link to it in the submissions thread. Be sure to include a title for your image in the subject line of your post.

Here is a link to flickr; basic memberships are free: https://www.flickr.com/

flicrk is just provided as an example, you may choose any hosting site you like.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you win the May contest, you must agree to host the next monthly contest (which will run in July, because the Spring contest runs in June) or find someone who will agree to do it for you. There is a list of DU photogs who may be willing to run the contest if you ask them. It is the third OP down, pinned at the top of the DU PHOTOGRAPHY GROUP. Here is the link: https://democraticunderground.com/103652806

Total number of images for this contest is capped at 30. In other words, if we get 30 images before the end of May 24th, submissions will close.
