***WINTER CONTEST*** Submissions

This discussion thread was locked by CC (a host of the Photography group).

It is time for our quarterly seasonal contest to begin. ***WINTER*** It covers weather, climate, holidays and events that happen during the winter season. Looking forward to some great entries created in the last 3 months or from previous years.

The submission thread will be open until Sunday March 3rd or 30 entries, whichever comes first. I will try to have the Preliminaries up by Monday March 4. The Finals will start Thursday March 7 and the winner announced Sunday March 10th.

Contest Rules:
The winner of the seasonal contest agrees to host the next seasonal contest or recruit someone else to host the contest.

Only one entry per person. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of the contest. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments or questions. The Host will start a separate thread just for comments and/or questions.

The Host is allowed to enter the Seasonal Contest.

There will be no extra rules on the Seasonal Contest beyond keeping your entry no larger than 800 pixels in its longest dimension and under 300K in file size and limit photo editing to a reasonable amount. We would prefer your photo look like a photograph instead of a digital design. If you aren’t sure, ask the group in a separate thread. You’ll get plenty of feedback to specific questions.
If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, just ask.


CONTEST LICENSE:

An entrant to this contest, by submitting a photograph, is giving permission for that photograph to be copied to Demopedia or to a linked Gallery and included in a DU Calendar that will display the photographs entered for this contest for the purpose of publicizing future contests and/or commemorating current and past contests. The entrant retains all other rights to the photograph being submitted. Neither Demopedia and/or a linked Gallery may use any photograph submitted for any purpose other than to display the photograph being submitted by the entrant, and neither gains any real or implied ownership rights to the photograph.




Not my entry or entries, just a couple bad examples.


or

are both winter shots.



GOOD LUCK!
