Lurk all you'd like, but why not register and post some pics? Registering also makes it easier to find the good stuff. Need help?

Last Photographer Standing #3 (Irregular or Picturesque) - Entry thread

Last Photographer Standing Contest Qualifying Round #3

Welcome to Contest #3, a qualifying round. This round is open to any dgrin member! It will run from Monday, April 2nd 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5) to Monday, April 16th 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5)

The topic ready for your interpretation: Irregular or Picturesque.

Shay says:
For this qualifying round what I would like to see everyone do is to title your photo without using the word "irregular" or "picturesque" anywhere in your title. Rely on the photo to bring the theme to life, not the title. If you rely too heavily on the title to make the photos case, you are doing it wrong ;-)

So when choosing the theme, look up in the dictionary "irregular" and look up "picturesque" to see if any of the definitions spark an inspiration. Go out and shoot to that inspiration, and then see if you can work it deeper, work around it, or even redefine it.

And my recommendation is also to avoid using both theme elements in your photo. Unless you have a smashing great idea, using both themes generally tends to dilute your photos message. So pick one or the other for maximum impact...that is unless you have something really awesome that just has to use both.
This thread, is the one into which you post your entry. Remember, 1 entry per person, and the photo must be fresh, taken during this contest period. Entries must have exif embedded or appended. Click here and here for help. Photos entered without proper exif showing a clear shot date will be disqualified.
