*****Submission Thread for the November Contest: "IN THE SHADOWS" is here and open now*****

This discussion thread was locked by Mira (a host of the Photography group).

Post your photo here, the subject is “IN THE SHADOWS” and how you interpret it is only limited in your imagination.
This will be left open until we have 30 photos assembled - but even if we don’t have that many the Contest will start for voting on November the 22nd.
Then the winners will be announced right after Thanksgiving.
. Post only your photo here, give it a title, and do not make any comments.
There is a separate thread for your comments here:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/103680880
We appreciate discussion an commentary, so just click that link to speak.

Some Rules:
Your entry should not be larger than 1024 pixels in it’s longest side, and no more than 675K in size.
Do not edit the photo in such a way that it is no longer recognizable as a photograph.
If you aren’t sure, ask the group in a separate thread. You’ll get plenty of feedback to specific questions. If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, just ask. You can find the rest of the rules for the competition here: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103673624 if you need further clarification.

I will also post a link in General Discussion, and in the Lounge to encourage participation.
Have fun, I hope you have already thought about it, and if you aren’t able to go out and shoot new photos at this time, maybe you have scoured your archives.

Now let’s see what comes in. I’m looking forward to it.

If you have an issue sizing the photos try this:
https://www.democraticunderground.com/103680936

I just re-sized about 4 or 5 of the entries. But with this help - you can upload them to the right size yourself.

I will not post the corrected sizes here in the submission thread, I can't edit your posts. But I will insert them in the voting threads.

Thank you all for coming through for this grand theme supplied by mnhtnbb and look for the preliminary polling threads possibly on Wednesday. Because it filled up so quickly I'll move it ahead to Wednesday from the earlier projected Sunday date.
