Neowin Bi-weekly Photography Assignment 1: Light

[Aperture]

Should we label it as part of the contest since it goes into the Neowin monthly thread?

Is tasteful (subjective) nudity allowed for this contest even though it not for the main photo thread?

I do hope this is taken seriously and several people contribute. Neowin needs a more active photo-group. Many people submit to the monthy thread but thread like this help people evolve and learn from others.

Unfortunately any form of nudity isn't allowed on Neowin, artistic or otherwise. I appreciate it limits a lot, it's a shame - but the user base cannot be guaranteed to be over 18, so no go!

I hope it's taken seriously too! I'm glad to see a good few more pictures.

Is there a way to replicate that effect using a point and shoot camera? or is there a way to replicate it using photoshop?

I love it.

Some amazing entries so far, guys!

In fact I have an entry of my own, Jared Leto of 30 Seconds To Mars singing and playing Capricorn on his own.

This is why I wait ages to claim front row :p

No where near as good as some of yours, but this was taken using only a basic digital camera, not long 'till i can afford my Canon :D

What if we got an admin to edit the first post and copy all the entries to that? I personally find it easier to determine which one I like best when I can see them all at once =D.

[Aperture]

I can do that, but new entries might come in, so its slightly unfair

[super_serge]

My entry. I have the original somewhere, but htis is just the low res vers.

Edit: Oops, I just read the rest of the posts and pics taken before the competition are not allowed. Guess I can't enter with this then, but please comment regardless.

[Aperture]

That's gorgeous super_serge! Good entry!

[CHALE]

Here is mine.

I shot it last night by my family lake house. Hope you guys like it.

[Prince Charming]

That's a great shot super_serge :)

This is one of me that I took a while ago. I don't have anything else right now but I'll try to do something more creative soon.

I can do that, but new entries might come in, so its slightly unfair

Wouldn't it be COMPLETELY unfair to vote now if people can still submit photos? If I vote now, and "bob" submits a truly awesome picture after I've voted, then I can't vote for him any more...

I agree.

[Kreuger]

Yeah, we should have a deadline for submission then a few days to vote when theyre all in.

[Aperture]

Hmm, point taken.

Thing is, if this is to happen every 2 weeks, I'd like to give a full weeks notice to get your votes in, you can wait till a day prior if you so wish - but this is just a way to get everyone to make sure their entries are in early, and on time!

I'll think about other ways I can do this though.

[super_serge]

why not make an early deadline and a final deadline for pics, the final deadline marking the end of the two weeks, and the early deadline marking the start of when the voting can begin. This way, anybody that has their pic in by the "real" (early) deadline has the advantage of having a fair vote for their photo.
