Lightbulb February 2009 - Open Photo Contest - Portrait display mode

Hi Folks,

Let's resurrect a standing contest we offer here at Knife Network.

Anyone can enter. This image is a knife photograph. Any knife. The only guideline is you shall shoot (or crop ) it in portrait mode: The image is longer than it is wider.

Closing date for entries: Feb 22nd.

I suggest sizes of about 600 wide by 800 long, or thereabouts. No larger.

When you are done with your photo, you need to post it in the Photo Contest Image Gallery:

http://www.knifenetwork.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=27

Offer points of interest in the photo, and maybe the camera specs and info. Your own challenges and observations.

Others: do NOT comment on photos anywhere in that forum, please.

We will post a poll to choose our faves after Feb 22nd.

Thanks!

Coop

Hi Folks,

OK, so at this point we have three entries and others who committed but haven't (*yet*) completed their entries. We would love to see at least five shots to enjoy and compare and take notes.

Let's set a new closing date for next Sunday eve (Mar 1st) to see who shows up. OK?

Please post a photo, preferably as a single thread on your own. Subject line: (ie: SharpByCoop - Portrait Display Contest) No, I am not entering.

We'll figure it all out no matter what.

Thanks already to the well-presented entries that have been posted!

Coop
