Photo Contest #90 - communication [April 12]

[HomeInMyShoes]

Congratulations to Brickell for the win in the last round.

Your task for the next round is:

communication


As almost always:

• Send a PM to HomeInMyShoes with your entry
• Entries must be in by April 12th (Sunday) midnight
• One entry per forumer, must be your own photo
• Try not to enter a photo already entered in a previous contest
• Your entry should work inside of the IMG tags (pbase is giving me some problems). If I have to rehost it will get resized to 800 in my freebie photobucket account.
• Maximum size is 1024 x 1024
• Include a photo title in your message if you have and want a title
• Avoid over-photoshopping stuff. It's okay to do those adjustements like colour and balance and cropping you'd do if you were physically printing it, but no giraffes on an iceberg kind of thing. I'm not going to say no to an entry because of it. Voters can decide for themselves what's acceptable themselves.
• First come first serve. If we reach the maximum 25 entries and yours is the 26th received, too bad. Unless there's a lot, in which case we might do a play-in preliminary round of images I think are less likely to actually win. Hey, someone needs to make a judgement call. If you don't like it, think of the rating systems in college athletics and how bad this could be.

I suppose no replies to this would be ironic?

[BFHeadstone]

did you not get mine?

[HomeInMyShoes]

^I got yours. I was meaning just to the thread itself and not in respect to entries. I think there's seven so far.

No extended communication in describing a decidedly abstract subject matter, communication, beyond the word "communication"--a little irony there too, no? Not that I'm complaining about that fact; it seems like everyone knows what to do. I didn't have to second-guess my entry at all. But certainly ironic in the context of people getting vocally (textually?) picky and dubious about other more discernible photo contest topic.

I wanted to make it language or words, but decided on the more abstract. There's some beautifully gifted minds around here and I thought the more abstract would produce better results.
