Ok part one is closed!
I just signed the lease on a new rental place so I am going mad... so it may take a day for me to open part 2... Over the course of the day I will reveal the entries for part 1 (but not the owners of course  )
WELL DONE EVERYONE! I am blown away at the quantity and quality of entries! New page

Cheers, radar
WOW! there's a lot of different themes and thinking behind a lot of these images.

Can't wait for round 2!  Nikon F80D, FM2n

WOW,
The bar is well and truly raised, the challenge has been made, everyone is going to have to be really innovative for the next round. Good luck.

What impresses me most about this is the diversity of interpretations of the theme. A very high bar has been set for round 2. I thought I had a chance at the top in this round, now I think I have a chance at the bottom

Especially with another round to go. As if getting into the top 10 from these entries wouldn't be hard enough! Doug C.
whether or not there is a click from the medium size version depends on the size the photog entered

there seem to be several there which do not comply with the EXIF rules - some don't have sufficient, one at least still has a name attached.
*** When getting there is half the fun! ***
I don't seem to be able to read EXIF data on any of the pix in Scott's gallery with iExif. iExif seems to be working on this forum.
Does anyone have an explanation for why this would be so? TFF (Trevor)

Trevor, check that you are trying to view the exif from the largest photo, not just the thumbnail. You might have to click on an image twice to get it to it's largest size.

Well, when I check they may be disqaulified... (that is the way the cookie crumbles I'm afraid) New page

Clicking on [photo properties] on the medium view will give you a abreviated exif

Disqualification may be a bit harsh Scott... Especially for this competition... People have submitted shots before that didn't have exif, but if they proved that it was taken on a DSLR - you've accepted it in the past... As for the one with the name attached... that's unfortunate and I'm sure we can all forget if we saw it... Many of the others are just as easy to guess as well (if you look at the camera type and have been paying attention in the Image Critiques section)... Cheers, John

i know that individual interpretation of a given theme is highly subjective but this is one of the few comps where i think the vast majority of entries have hit the mark.
some very nice captures depicting movement, well done.
Ok Lets be entirely clear here...
To me what is important is what is shown up on the [photo properies] link on the comp page... others may differ and can argue thier case to me.. If some one is keen enough to download the full size image and run it through an deep exif header grabber well... then... Now I need peoples help with this, I am moving into a new place this week and am very busy, could the owners of images which they think are not valid PM me the title of the image (or even better a hyperlink) To repeat, dont be overly worried if there is an identifying feature buried way down in the exif of the file, what is important is what shows up when you click [photo properties] New page

Hi mate. As this is my first comp entered, I followed the instructions which did say to verify exif data using the photo properties option in the dropdown box. I wouldn't know if there was any other info in my shot, but according to the properties it is all good. And I agree that is all that should matter.
Not after the comp has closed I am afraid...
However you can still enter in round 2 (just not the same image) New page
http://www.potofgrass.com Portfolio... http://images.potofgrass.com Comments and money always welcome
I think all members and entrants should be aware that one unlucky soul has already been disqualified from part 1 (he or she is free to enter part 2) for having their details in the comment section. This is easy to check when you look at your image in Nikon View or run a program like Iexif or similar over it. Please check, as Scott cant with the huge volume of entries and it would be a shame to have anyone else miss out.
