POTY 2007 - Round 6 - Red

[Marcel]

Welcome to Round 6 of the TP : Photographer of the Year 2007.

As usual, the competition rules are here (http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=15325).

Any questions, please feel free to ask.

Please use this thread to discuss the competition, and specifically the current round, and your interpretation of it. Also feel free to discuss ideas and thoughts etc. :) While there is an anonymous nature to the submissions and voting, there's no need to be secretive about ideas and the like. While we'd all like to win :D...the competition is for all of us to help improve our photography :)

So, on with this months theme, which is RED

The cut off for submissions to be received is 23:59 on the 30th June 2007

The winner of this round will receive an a4 or a3 sized print of their winning shot.

Please email your correctly sized entries, with your forum username in the subject or body of the email, to competition@talkphotography.co.uk.

Thanks to all of you last month, not one image was oversized :thumbs:

Have fun shooting, and remember, it's all aimed at getting us thinking about our photography more, and hopefully improving our skills, but more importantly, it's about having fun doing what we enjoy doing, and thats taking and sharing pictures.

So get your thinking caps on ladies and gentlemen, and go and shoot something with the theme of "RED".

Thankyou to those who have sent their entries already.

I will be replying to each of you personally to confirm your entry over this weekend, so if by monday you havent heard anything, then drop me a PM :)

[Ally]

mmmm..........think I'll have a bash this month, I'll treat it like a college project! :D

[AndyBorzi]

Think this is my first post in the forum! :wave:

Forgive me if this is in the rules but I didn't see it, plus I am tired so probably missed it! :embarrassed:

Does it matter when the picture was taken? i.e does it have to be in the month of the comp?

*edit* s'ok, re-read the rules for the third time and found it now!!

[sue]

Ok well the end is fast approaching and I have loads of ideas but as yet have no got the camera out to do anything about it.

[RobbieW]

whoops, forgot all about this!

[Grendel]

Submitted mine last night. I always seem to end up leaving it till the last minute somehow :shrug:

This was a good theme. I had so many different ideas that I couldn't decide which to go for :help: I'm not too pleased with the shot I settled on tbh, but by then it was too late to change my mind :lol:

[Susane]

Same here Grendal, wish we could send 2 in and let the judges pick which one to mark! :D

[Marcel]

I've replied to everyone who has sent an entry by email, so if you haven't got an email soon, then send me a PM to check with me :)

Thanks to all that have entered, and to everyone who hasn't....You've only got till this evening to enter!

[Shorn]

[RobbieW]

[Shorn]

[Dark Star]

[hypnotic]

Trying to send my entry but all I get is a returned email with ....

"Mail failure - malformed recipient address"

[Yv]

kev, if you have copied and pasted from here, remove the full stop from very end of email addy - thats what was happening to me last month until I realised what I had done :bonk:

[hypnotic]

Thanks for that. :thumbs:

Had to type it in by hand in the end .... What is the world coming to?

[sue]

[hypnotic]

How did you tell Marcel which photos you wanted to vote for?

[sue]

just sent pm

[hypnotic]

The photos have no way to identify them to Marcel.

Have I missed something ... :lol:

[Susane]

They're numbered :D

[sue]

hmmmm photo, with 0 votes underneither, then a number, i used these numbers??????????

[Marcel]

Yup, just the image numbers underneath the photos

[hypnotic]

I see now ... :bonk:

You have to open the photo to get the number. Has this changed from last month?

[Marcel]

Nope.....It should be there.....If you hover over the image it should pop up, if not, if you change the view to "....with titles", the title should be underneath.

[Jimmy_Lemon]

[Marcel]

Lots of votes in now...Been through them and I'm up to date....Any more, get them in, in the next 15 minutes. As soon as my clock hits midnight, I'm posting the results :)
