Ladees, Gentlemen, Ballboys, and Photographers, all.

We have a winner!

Whoa .... let me back up a bit ...

We have a Challenge! A brand spanking new challenge for you!

The theme for this new challenge is scent. The scent of a woman, actual scent, a dog (bloodhound) or anything than can be interpreted as scent.

Photos may be made any time from March 1 through March 31, inclusive. Scott will be putting up a gallery to which you may upload your images and will post the relevant details once he has that sorted. Judging will be similar to last time, with Chris (sirhc55), Matt K, and myself choosing the winning images.

So ... go out and get yourselves on the scent of a challenge winning image. It's that simple.

Scott's edit:
Gallery is up at:
http://www.potofgrass.com/gallery/c19
Many rules have been relaxed for the new format but for your own interest please -hide your image- upon submission (well you dont want people stealing your ideas? Do you?)

Great theme for the challenge Gary

Hmmm.... this should add a whiff of interest to March :lol:

It smells fishy to me.

Quick question - how many photos can be submitted for the comp?

Hmm, this is going to be tricky, seeing that those coins aren't in circulation anymore...

Cheers

Groan warning:

I want to see some of the D3s here show their awesome signal-to-nose-ratio.

Correct.

You need to be a member of the Members group here, and then you need to send Scott (MHD) a PM letting him know that you wish to register for the challenges.

If you are not yet a member of the Members group, please refer to the message at the top of our portal page, and to the FAQ.

by **sirhc55** on Mon Mar 03, 2008 10:49 am

Sue - you are a senior member who is therefore in the members group :up:

Sue I think you deserve a unique title, I'm sure Gary and the mods can come up with something appropriate.

If you can access the post a message function in the For Sale section, then you're a member of the members group.

If you can see a list of the specials from the bargains section - Portal page, leftmost column, towards the bottom - then you're a member of the members group.

by **Glen** on Wed Mar 05, 2008 10:10 am

Scott have there been any entries yet?

by **MHD** on Wed Mar 05, 2008 11:01 am

One entry thus far.

A reminder to all: You can change your entry so if you have an image you might as well put it in as a placeholder and delete it and re-enter another image later if you change your mind

The more relaxed ones :evil:

by **Glen** on Thu Mar 13, 2008 4:11 pm

Patrick it is the PP rule, before only global adjustments on this challenge spot changes are allowable as well.

How are your scent images going, this one tests the brain nicely

Local changes? Can one apply changes to smooth skin, apply a vignette, apply selective blur, make my photo look good, pay bribes to judges, etc?

by **Glen** on Wed Mar 19, 2008 8:52 pm

How is everyone going on this? I am finding it a real challenge (in a good way), a few ideas but none have translated to an image as well as I would have liked.

by **phillipb** on Wed Mar 19, 2008 9:47 pm

Me too Glen, I can see it but I just can't smell it.

by **Glen** on Thu Mar 20, 2008 8:31 am

A tip - check the word out in the dictionary and then let your mind expand laterally :wink:
