Default Photography Contest | 28

Entries: October 19 - October 25
Voting: October 26 - November 1




Submissions ends 11:00PM EST


The winner of this round of the contest will then pick a new category/theme for the next contest via a private message I will send.

If the winner does not contact me with a category by 10:00pm EST the next day then I will choose one to post up. That way we can be sure to keep the contest in order and moving. Remember I will send you a Private Message to see which theme you would like to use so check your inbox!


The winner will be picked by Poll voting. You will choose the picture you like most by a poll posted above the thread.

RULES AND REGULATIONS: Please Read!
  • Please submit linked photos (with [img] tags from photobucket, tinypic, facebook etc.) NO LARGER than 800x600.

  • I would prefer submissions to not be posted as thumbnails. This makes it difficult for me to post the pictures for the contest in the same way attached photos or too large a photo does.
  • Attached photos will NOT be accepted as they cannot be linked to for the voting thread. There will be no exceptions.

  • The photo's MUST be your own work. They must have been taken by you at some point in your life. They can be as old or as new as you want, as long as they belong to you.

  • Photoshopping will be allowed. With that being said, by photoshopping I mean MINOR color/contrast tweaks and cropping. It will be hard to police this, so we have to leave it open. It will be fairly obvious though if you do some major photoshopping, so please leave it to just minor tweaking.
  • Your photo MUST fall within the category of that weeks contest. Any random or out of place entries will be deleted.

  • One entry per member. If you submit multiple pics I will request you to choose which to use. If you don't give me a response, I will choose.
A reminder that your entry does not have to contain your vehicles. This contest is to see some other photography other then our trucks which we see on a daily basis.

Last round's winner was El_Beautor!

This week's theme will be: Water

I'll post up my submission tomorrow, when I have time to upload it to flickr.

Thanks guys for the nice words. I think this was taken with a Canon 30D w/ a Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 lens. This photo I think was taken at F22 w/ a 30 sec exposure w/ ISO 100.
