P.S. I am not one to give away crappy prizes (i.e. winner will get some good shiz)...so lets see some dope pics. Last 2 weeks of August should be perfect for the theme.

Exactly. The sky is a fluid and unplanned canvas.

Not my decision, but I think it should. Seems a bit more fun if people are getting out specifically for the contest, rather than digging through a HD.
Just my 2 cents. I guess it really doesn't matter either way, if it fits the description...

Completely agreed. Seems more like a purpose. I have plenty on my HS, just don't think its right imo.

Final answer?

Oli's picture gives me an idea for next month's contest.

People will need to stick ZHPMafia.com branding somewhere creative in their photos. The most creative wins. That's October's contest, though.

Carry on with September's.

The natural background in Ohio is pretty lame so, this is the best I have with those limitations.

Judges?

I'm not one for creative limitations. People are allowed to interpret the rules how they see fit in my eyes.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Sounds good. It's in.

There was never an issue with Kyle's pic.

I will attempt to build a thread tomorrow, with just pics, so that the judges will have un-interrupted viewing.

Matt, that is one sick picture.

I tried taking pics on monday... but nothing came out the way I wanted it. I will share what I took in Casey's corner...

Ugh. Almost as bad as the ship to shore phones on aircraft carriers @ $1/min.

Judging thread is up....for everyone's viewing pleasure. Only positive comments please...until winner is announced.

And THEN we trash the winner? :shift

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Hehe. Constructive criticism always welcome.

I like the philosophy on our site. If you don't like something, you have to explain it. Do it professionally.

That's the Mafia way.

You'll have to catch the next one, amigo.

Nice house in the woods!

raw photo. taken with a Nikon L110, point and shoot / dslr hybrid type of camera. I love it!! My house is actually in a very suburby area, just my lot has LOTS of trees on one end.... haha

I guess, I'll enter next time!

[danewilson77]

It's funny how the rear camber always looks hella negative in camera shots. I've noticed that in many of my photos as well.

[Oli77]

Not all cameras do that. Some are much more than others. I bet an SLR doesn't do that.

I think it's call pin cushing?

[danewilson77]

OK...thanks Oli.

[Washburn]

L110 is certainly not a DSLR - it's just a regular P & S..
nice pic for sure though
