[TdC]

contest is now over. as we have only three entries, I will allow voting in this thread.

 

[Tom]

There isn't enough time to enter mate.

 

[TdC]

hmm you think so? my idea was to keep the contest a bit snappy if you know what I mean. how many days would you an extension would warrant? 5?

 

[Tom]

Personally I'd say that 2 weeks would be better - I haven't had time to do anything due to work. Make it start the first and 15th of each month.

 

[ECA]

I thought monthly would be good, I was going to enter the first/second but didnt get time to take a pic before they were over

 

[TdC]

duly noted. this contest is extended until sunday 28th of this month, 12:00. Good luck!

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Monthly/bi-weekly vote for me!

(I know I said I'd enter these things but no suitable topic has come up for old stuff of mine and work's way too busy for me to take anything new.)

 

[Billargh]

duly noted. this contest is extended until sunday 28th of this month, 12:00. Good luck!

Nice one I had an idea for this competition, I just haven't got round to getting out there yet.

 

[Tom]

I took this today (well, yesterday now). I thought it a charming picture because it contained the reflection of a very handsome man, with a bike helmet on, holding a camera.

What a co-incidence eh?

[Moving Target]

Hello. This image is a reflection of me. I expect to win seeing as the competition is cr@p!!! I think the way the light highlights my features is inspiring

 

[Will]

Wow, thats amazing MT. First post in 3 years, and its a no hotlinking image.

 

[TdC]

at least his avatar is still that guy wanking into a bell

Waffleimages only allow linking from something awful I'm afraid

 

[Moving Target]

I knew that...I was giving all your chubby fingers exercise!

 

[Ch3tan]

Can you go away again now MT

 

[Billargh]

The light was a bit off today, and my cameras not the best to work with but here we go.

This one was just an experiment really, but at least it fits in with the topic a bit more than the others.

[Tom]

The last one is pretty good I'd say it needs cropping slightly.

 

[Billargh]

If any mod could replace my older picture with this one would be appreciated. Definately think it would have been better had the people not been there.

 

[Tom]

I think the people actually improve it. Just needs rotating a degree or so and it's bob-on

 

[Billargh]

The people taking photos in it does add a bit extra to the photo like. Could've had a clearer view of The Sage if they weren't there though.

Oh and Tom, any idea how much etc I should rotate it? I'm always up for making my photos that wee bit better. Tips on how to would be nice aswell, only began attempting to photoshop recently
