TiBB Photography Competition 2011 >> Main Thread

http://i953.photobucket.com/albums/a...st2011logo.png

Hello and welcome to the TiBB Photography Competition 2011! If you haven't followed a photography competition before the idea is pretty simple; every week you are given a theme and then you have to take a photo that shows your interpretation of the theme. Every week members and judges will rate the photos in order of preference, and the contestant with the least amount of points will leave the competition.

Weekly Percentages

Spoiler:

The contestants have been revealed above - well done to you guys, and thanks for applying!

This year there are 4 judges: CharlieO, Niamh, Patrick and ukturtle. They will rate each photo out of 20, giving points to these 3 aspects of the photo:

- Originality 5 points available
- Sticking to the theme 5 points available
- Overall quality of the photo 10 points available

The ratings the judges give will be 50% of the final vote. The other 50% will be from the forum members, who will rank the photos in order. Contestants aren't allowed to vote.

Every Saturday evening, the photos will be posted and the judges/forum members will have until Sunday evening to vote.

Themes will be posted in this thread. Contestants and forum members can chat in this thread about ideas, although please refrain from posting your photo on the forum.

Theme 1
The first theme of the competition is Joy. Contestants have until 6pm on July 9th to send in the photos. Photos must be sent in by a PM to me. Try and be as original as possible, think outside of the box.

Good luck!
