August's Photo Competition Theme.

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Hey hey, it's time for the next photography competition. Last month's winner was Shlupquack, and she has picked the theme.....

(SPOILER)Colors!

So any problems or complaints about that choice should be addressed here. Make sure to use strong language and colorful insults to get her attention.

If you have any questions about how this thing works, or what the rules are, go here.

You have until the 10th of the month to submit to me a photo by PM using this month's theme. I'd love to see all four original participants play again as well as many of you who said you'd like to try. Miriel, Rye, Shorty, Shiny, Jiro, Timekeeper, DemonDude, and smittenkitten that means you! Good luck!

I took my photo the evening after shlup announced the theme so I'll hand something in this time.

[Agent Proto]

Can we submit our pics early or do we have to wait until August arrives?

[Timekeeper]

I only missed the last competition because I was in Africa!
And I did actually take some nice photos which would have fit into the last category. Oh well, I'll do what I can for this one...

[Miriel]

I don't think I'll participate, but maybe I'll get Del Murder to enter in something.

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Proto, if people want to go ahead and start sending me pictures that's fine.

Miriel, you should handicap yourself somehow. Only use a Lomo Kompakt Automat or some other weird camera.

[Timekeeper]

Can I clear up something?
Shlup originally wrote 'color' as her theme, but it says 'colors' in the thread title. Yeah I'm being picky, but this difference will help me decide in what I take a photo of, as I could take a photo of something with lots of colors, or I could take a photo of something that has a vibrant color/screams color when I see it.

[demondude]

Be liberal with it I'd say.

I think DD has it right. Shlup just wants the photographer to celebrate and emphasize the use of color. If you choose a monochromatic photo emphasizing one color or if you go for a large amount of many colors, either option is acceptable.

We have our first photo!

Where's the photo? (I remember you would post them as you received them for us to see )

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Sorry. My work computer is the suckiest suck that ever sucked suck. It has two warring antivirus programs that wreak havoc on my online capabilities. Every time I think I have them under control they somehow break my intarwebz. This time they would let me open the window to edit a post, but not let me save the changes. So I had to wait until I got home.

[AngelWings8]

Haha no rush, just excited to see it

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Oh, it's already up. Check back at the top.

[Rantz]

Super cool picture.
