Photographic Eye

Hi All,

Internet died on me last night, so I will be making the winner/theme update when I get home from work around 2pm EST. I apologize for the delay.

Thank you,
Marcia

Since I somehow managed to confuse myself ... there is actually another day left to the contest. For some odd reason, I thought it ended today, but it ends tomorrow. So, if you'd still like to get a photo in for the contest, you have until 11pm EST tomorrow night.

Forgive my lapse of time; old age is catching up to me (:

Since this IS a photo community, I thought I would share this great album a friend of mine passed along to me. It has some really amazing photos. Thought, those of us who enjoy photographs, would enjoy this (:

Scroll down a tad and they'll be on the right hand side.

Please submit your entry photo by March 11th, 11pm Eastern Standard Time, and remember to tag your submission with contest: 3. As usual, the winners of contests receive 30 points to be used as they wish (paid time, gift shop, gift for others, etc).

Have fun! And remember, you may always post photos that have nothing to do with the contest. :)

I do have a question though—Would you all like to have two contests in one month versus the once a month I’ve been doing?

Or, do you like having time to take your photo, process it, and then post it?

If we did it twice a month, we’d of course shorten the time contestants had to submit photos, and the time to vote. BUT, it would give two folks a chance to win in one month, instead of just one winner.

I am trying to get the community to be a little more active. I do like that so many are posting entries for the contests, but I would like to see more going on ‘in-between’ the time a contest starts and the time the voting begins as well.

Please share your thoughts, thank you!

Congratulations to sakurablossom for winning the first contest! Your 30 points have been sent to your account. Please let me know if you do not get them within a business day. I want to thank everyone who participated; all of the photos were great.

The theme for contest #2 is Candle.


The contest is open until February 21st 11pm EST. Please tag your contest entries with contest!#2 for the entry to be considered official (and so I can easily find them).

Please remember the community rules … no photo bigger than 600 pixels in width. You may post a LARGER image of your photo, under a cut, and direct folks to view beneath the cut. If you aren’t sure on how to do a cut, please view the profile to this community.

As always, you may continue to post other photos, not related to the contest, at all times. HAVE FUN!
