***** SUBMISSIONS for the April Contest+++++ WHIMSICAL, FANCIFUL or ODD
The THEME for the April PHOTO Contest is:WHIMSICAL, FANCIFUL or ODD
That means anything that strikes your personal fancy along those lines. I’m thinking we might look for the funny, the different, the wildly elaborate = it’s all up to you.
SUBMISSIONS will be open til the 15th of April, unless the limit of 30 entries is reached prior to that date.
The winner of the contest will agree to host the May photo contest or recruit a substitute. Any person hosting needs a star to post polls. So if you submit, and win, you must get a star.
Color or B&W are acceptable. Considering the theme I will allow any editing for cropping, color correction, saturation and exposure.
Please do NOT ask questions or make comments in the Submissions thread: please use the separate comments thread:

Contest Rules
One entry per photographer, unless I open it up to a second entry which I will make clear to all of you in a separate post along the way. These can be new photos, or from your archives, but they cannot have already been entered in one of our contests before.
You need to post your entry in this submission thread. Be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. As already indicated the submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments, no questions. I will start a separate thread just for comments and questions.
Please check the sizing on your photo before submitting it: longest side no more than 1024 px and file size < 675K If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, ask and I'll try to fix it.
The Submission & Comment threads will be posted in the Photography Group, and there will be links in GD and THE LOUNGE to help fill the slots. The Preliminary polls and Final Contest poll will be posted in GD per Skinner’s permission.
Happy Shooting, and keep smiling.
I’m leaving you to it with the most fanciful thing that crossed my path this week, a birthday cake made by my dear friend Lauren, all the flowers are edible.
