>>> DGrin Challenge 78: SILHOUETTES <<<

[DoctorIt]

Hi Everyone,
Dgrin challenge 78 is here. It will run from Monday November 13th at 12:00:01 a.m. NYC time, through Monday, November 27th at Noon NYC time. The guest judge for the challenge will be the winner of challenge 77 (System), as determined by the voters.

As always, please take some time to comment and critique so all participants will get the most out of the Challenge. Please comment as often as you can.

The theme for Challenge 78 is: Silhouettes

You can thank Stan for the suggestion :thumb

After the last couple very difficult challenges, this is a little more straightforward. We all know what a good silhouette (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silhouette) is. That being said, go ahead, come up with something original, suprise us! Good luck to you all and, as usual, Dgrin Photo Challenge rules apply. Please read them here (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=6762) and remember that shots must be fresh, as in, shot during the challenge period. Don't forget to include the date shot or a link to your smugmug exif info.

~DoctorIt



***Challenge SILHOUETTES will close to entries on Monday, November 27th at 12 Noon NYC time***

Please note that entries received after the challenge period ends are ineligible and will be deleted without notice.
