Photo Competition Round 40 – Food (Discussion) [Ends 16th December]


My theme is Food. Getting out may not be so easy, manic shoppers, rain, snow even. Why not take some pictures indoors, in the warmth of your kitchen or maybe venture out to snap some edible animals grazing? The World of food must offer inspiration to cook up some tasty pictures, I hope

Discussion only in this thread please. Entries in the other thread.







Rules

1. Image must have been taken within the competition period, which is from Sunday 19th November 2007 to Sunday 16th December 2007.
2. No image will be greater than 800 pixels along its longest side.
3. Image overall will not exceed 300kb (defined as 307,200 bytes).

If a submitted image contravenes rules 1 ,2 or 3 could people please mention this in the discussion thread so that the poster can fix it, some advice to the poster about how they might rectify the problem might be handy. No image which breaks any of these rules will be included in the voting thread so let's try to avoid a submission being left out due to not meeting the rules.

4. Each entrant can change their posted image at any time (using edit function) up to the closing date for submissions which is midnight UK local time on Sunday 16th December 2007.
5. Maximum of three images per entrant.
6. Digital manipulation is allowed in order to correct technical issues. Sharpening, levels, contrast and colour adjustments are allowed as is the cloning out of minor defects.
7. If you feel the need to use other digital tools or effects then these must be fully documented so that people can learn how to use such tools/effects.
8. Image must be hosted so that it appears correctly in the competition thread using something like photobucket or a direct link to the photo if you cannot do this.
9. Image must be titled but not on the image itself, i.e. some bold text naming the image should be posted above it. In addition, to benefit others, please post some details below the pic e.g. EXIF data or just aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation, equipment used etc. (this is a learning exercise after all).
10. There will be no posts in the Entries thread other than those for the posting of competition images.
11. There are no judges, only votes from Scoobynet members, their collective decision is final.
12. Voting should be 17th to 8 pm Friday 21st December, anyone with a Scoobynet log-in will be eligible to vote, not just those submitting pictures.
13. Images will meet the requirements of the ScoobyNet T&Cs
14. Winner gets to choose the theme for the next round. If the winner is away, after 5 days the runner up will get to choose, although the title of winner will retain with the rightful winner.

Some amazing pics in there!

I came up with the subject Food as it is that time of year good light is not easy to find outside etc so thought that a subject that could be shot indoors would be worth a try...

Oh dear. Not so many pics this month. Maybe it's a rubbish subject, maybe Christmas shopping etc has sapped energy... Come on people, lets see your pics!

I think it's just a busy time. Too dark to take any outdoor pics anyhow. So lots of scope with this theme for indoor shots :)

I'll be participating if I get a moment this weekend or next.

Let's hope for a last minute rush.

Struggling for time as well as inspiration - this is my busiest time at the day job and I'm doing 16-18 hour days, 6 days a week...

But I'll still try :)

Just not had any time at all, especially with the Missus just giving birth

I did have one shot in mind that would fit nicely into the Comp theme, but it would be against SN T&C's (or Donna's :lol1:)

I have an idea for a shot, but too cold to sit outside all day with the big lens, I might just have to try and take one through the window.:wonder:

Really sorry I didn't participate this time, Echo. Been very busy and no let-up till Xmas evening when I hope I can stop and put my feet up, then maybe have a work-free few days to use the camera!

Just doing a voting thread - not many people had a go this month - subject may have been to anyone's taste :(
