Dane,
Did you mean 2359 as the deadline?

[danewilson77]

Dane,
Did you mean 2359 as the deadline?

NOPE. 2400 does it for me. That means midnight on the day specified.....to most.

[C Withers Media]

Great contest Dane, will be participating.

I already have my photo snapped in my head, just need to go create it.


Photo is called "I love light."

[UdubBadger]

nice

[Hornung418]

I imagine a Brick Tamblin-esque phrase when I hear that, Casey. LOL in for pics!

[C Withers Media]

that would be I love lamp, but yeah...

[Hornung418]

Haha. I know the I <3 Lamp phrase.

[neil1138]

I <3 light

[danewilson77]

I <3 light

[UdubBadger]

I'll be sure not to include any bokeh in my submission... :facepalm

Forgot about this thread... I guess I should have read your first post more thoroughly

[danewilson77]

Also...remember that once you submit a photo....that photo/post cannot be changed.

[UdubBadger]

fantastic shot william

[danewilson77]

One more rule modification/clarification:

~Once the photo is submitted, the post cannot be edited. The photo needs to be your own creation, and needs to be created during the submission period (i.e. not a previous work, but a new creation)

[Marcus-SanDiego]

I like the rule addendum, DW. Photo has to be taken during the fourth quarter. Nice. Hopefully I will have something by the end of the year.

[wsmeyer]

I like the idea of encouraging people to get out there and take pictures and not just scrounge through their current library. Of course, this means my pic no longer qualifies lol. I'll keep the theme in the back of my mind though and come up with something between now and the end of the year.

Glad everyone liked the one I took 6 months ago anyway!

William.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

William, it looks great. I am sure your next one will look even better.

That is an AWESOME pic, what a great selection for a "light' theme. Too bad it's out. Doesn't take anything away for it all all of course. Love how you captured the light just flowing through that valley.

[Hornung418]

Love the shots of Half Dome.

[Hornung418]

Awesome! did you make a filter with a lemon shape on it to get that kind of bokeh?

[Marcus-SanDiego]

There were no tricks involved, Horny. Just a shot that I took last night near the Bellagio.

[Hornung418]

That's mad cool how they turned out like Lemons tho!

[Marcus-SanDiego]

For sure. When I saw the resulting shape, I knew I would call them lemon drops.

[Hornung418]

After looking at it again...I think the shape of the glass determined the shape of the bokeh. If you look at them from left to right, they rotate from almost vertical to horizontal directly underneath the glass, then back to vertical again! And they do that as you move up the picture. Very cool!

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Yep. Good observation, horny. I was using a 50mm lens.

What's the light requirements?

Does it matter if its a panorama or not?

Or can it be as simple as a lit lamp?

I'm pretty sure it's how you interpret the category and make it how you want.

Unorthodox for sure but I'm just mildly obsessed with Uta Barth's Inbetween Places series so I went for that look, it's Bokeh-licious.
