Lets get started! Make sure you have your cameras and creativity at the ready as here are the first three themes!.

UNIVERSAL THEME [this theme is for all 12 contestants to photograph]

Theme: Weather
Pretty simple universal theme for round one. We get different types of weather every day, maybe make it seem exciting or beautiful.

GROUP ONE [Arneldo, Bronaaaa, Dezzy, Jessica, LewisLeona & Patrick ONLY]

Theme: Halloween
Again pretty simple, Halloween is tommorow so it should give you a chance to get a nice shot. Also try and include nice lighting in your shot.

GROUP TWO [CaraRawr, GypsyGoth, MrGaryy, Nate & PJ ONLY]

Theme: Bonfire/Guy Fawkes Night
Another simple celebration theme, it's next Thursday so again you should get a chance to get a good photo. Also try and include nice lighting in your shot.

- Both entries MUST be in by Friday 6th November before 6:00PM.
- 'pm' them to me - 'Sam!' [photos can be sent in at different times]

--------------------------------------

Rules
- Photos may not be retrieved or copied from any source, if your photo looks suspicious then I will track the photo down and you will be kicked off.
- Entries cannot be in late, entries that I fail to recieve will result in ejection. Failure of both entries will result in immediate ejection & failure of giving
one entry in will recieve a warning and a chance of being eliminated.
- Photos can be existing, but you must have took it. We will prefer to see newly took photos however.
- It has to be a still image.
- You cannot show anyone your photo before I post them, we don't want any cheating.

Rules on editing
you can;
- Resize - all photos should be of a good side so I do not have to resize them.
- Crop
- Sharpen
- Make the photo B&W or FULLSEPIA. No mixture of the two.
you cannot;
- Use lighting effects
- Blur
- Enhance [change brightness/contrast]
- Use overlay/lighten/screen etc on any photo.
- Use texts or borders
- Use any other effects
I do make graphics so I can see when a photo has been edited.

Good luck and have fun with the themes! You have until 6:00PM on Friday 6th November to get both entries in. Any questions, just ask.

When do you need our ajudications by?

Same time, I will want you to post short comments on each photo. Obviously there will be 24 photos so brief is fine. Then I'll get the judges who are online to rank the photographers, 1 being the best. And then I will work out the best and worst photographer from those rankings.
