Ok! Time to Swing in for the first comp of 2006!

The Theme as Decided By Potatis who had the honour deffered to him from Rokkstar:

:
3. "Opposites" - Any two or more things in the photo that appear to be the opposites of each other. Could be something square with something round. Something open with something closed. Something dark with something light etc, etc..

This will be a No-Prize comp, except for the bragging rights and ability to pick the theme for Comp 9...

This means that those who have joined pretty much from today and onwards will be ineligible to enter this current comp unless you get that post count up and attend a DSLR Users function of sorts by the time the due date rolls around.

This is a Good choice or is it a Bad choice

Glen,
Hehehe! 50 pots :shock:

my backyard too small and the cops keep their eyes on me :lol:

Posted: **Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:15 pm**

Okay Birddy, we will let the new members in with just 50 posts instead of 50 pot plants.

A great challenge topic and well chosen.

Thinking caps will be working overtime.

Posted: **Sat Jan 21, 2006 11:21 pm**

Cool choice of challenge.

Just need to nurture a few more pots before I can participate though... wonder if they'll multiply if I feed them extra well

Posted: **Thu Feb 09, 2006 4:12 pm**

Thanks Scott, any word on how many entries there are so far ?

Posted: **Thu Feb 09, 2006 4:14 pm**

Just one so far... but until more entries come in it is a winner

Posted: **Fri Feb 10, 2006 2:27 pm**

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!

Come on all... Only two entries so far!

Remember you CAN change your entries later so get a place holder in just in case you end up to busy towards the end of the challenges.

Remember the aim of these challenges is self improvement so go out there and find some contrasts TODAY!

Bugger, Was down in Adelaide for work with no access to my home 'puter and images so missed the deadline. :oops:
