FinalGear Photo Assignment #18 - "Wet"

BerserkerCatSplat · June 2nd, 2009, 10:31 PM

Theme: "Wet"

As in, not dry.

Timeframe: Your entry must be emailed to finalgearphoto@gmail.com on or before midnight Mountain Time, June 30th, 2009.
Prize: Bragging rights, and a position in the Winners' Gallery!

Restrictions: Please follow the following restrictions in order to submit an eligible entry.

- Your image must be a maximum of 1000 pixels (height or width), and a minimum of 500 pixels (height or width).
- Your submission email should have the title of the image and "Contest #18" in the subject. Please title your images, as the poll must have some way to distinguish between them - I don't want half the vote options to be "Untitled."
- Also, when you email your submission, make sure you include your FinalGear screen name so I know who's submitting what!
- Only one submission per user. Please do not create multiple accounts to submit more images, as it is 1) unethical, and 2) statistically reduces your chance of winning anyway.
- Your image must NOT contain any borders or signatures or anything to identify the photo as your own. The images will be stripped of EXIF data as to make the vote 100% anonymous. Please do not mention which photo is yours, and please do not post that image anywhere until the contest is over.
- Your image must have been taken after the contest has started, I will not accept old photos that happen to match the subject. This contest is designed to promote creativity, not find out who has the biggest backlog of good photos.
- Your image may be altered in whatever imaging software you choose, without actually altering the content of the photograph. (i.e. you can alter the curves as much as you want, but you can't paste in David Hasselhoff.) Editing out distracting non-content objects such as power lines is also acceptable.
- Please keep the submissions tasteful and without gore/nudity. I like nude photography as much as the next guy, but this is a public forum. Don't submit anything you wouldn't put up in a public area.

If you have any comments or suggestions about the rules of the FinalGear contests, please voice them in the appropriate forum, or in this thread if you want.

When submitting your image, feel free to suggest a topic for the next contest!

Good luck, and have fun!

Oooh, this should be interesting, will have to think a little about it.

I fear I may regret asking this but ... what is "wet" supposed to mean other than "not dry"?

matt2000 · June 6th, 2009, 12:27 AM

^ Has visible water on it, I guess.

moisture/water... and I presume it has to be work safe

epp_b · June 6th, 2009, 3:25 AM

^ Of course, that's already in the rules.

FordGT · June 6th, 2009, 5:28 AM

Any subject we want?

The "not dry" explanation was just a joke, and apparently not a very good one. images/smilies/lol.gif

LeVeL · June 17th, 2009, 12:16 PM

<-------- forgot all about the contest. Although I already have the shots I think, just have to edit.

vikiradTG2007 · June 22nd, 2009, 2:38 PM

I've received some votes in recent contests, so... my entry is in for this one.

ALXBWSCREW · June 22nd, 2009, 7:58 PM

I think I'm gonna miss this one because it hasn't rained for a long time here images/smilies/sad.gif

mgkdk · June 22nd, 2009, 9:45 PM

^ Last time I was there Constanta was right by the black sea, did you guys move it images/smilies/tongue.gif

Judging by what some political figures think they can do around here, yeah, they moved it further east. images/smilies/lol.gif

No, we didn't but a shot at the sea is not what I'm looking for... You were in Constanta? When? And what impressions did the city leave you?

Yes, in late april 1991, we were only there for a day to get away from Tulcea for a while (my brother is adopted from Romania) I don't remember much from the city only that the taxidrivers almost got a heartattack when we invited them to eat with us in the casino (they declined) turns out we spend more than they made in 3 months just on lunch for 7 people images/smilies/blink.gif

ALXBWSCREW · June 22nd, 2009, 9:56 PM

Wow. Very kind of your family to adopt somewone. What's your brother's name? If you ever come back to Constanta and need some help, don't hesitate to contact me. Altough I don't think that'll happen too soon images/smilies/lol.gif

mgkdk · June 22nd, 2009, 10:02 PM

George (I think his last name was Pascu or something like that)

Actually there has been some talk amongst the other couples, that were there too, about making a trip to see it all again images/smilies/wink.gif

(but my brother has no interest in it)

Man, it's been raining for a couple of days here, and I want some sunshine!!
