    News Photo Competition - March *Photos ONLY*

    This month's competition theme as chosen by _Belial is "Freestyle".

    Anything goes this month...so lets see a deluge of entries.


    NOTE: This thread is for photos ONLY

    Closing date will be the 24th.

    Please read the rules below before posting your entry.

    Rules:

    • Must be your own work.

    • Only 1 entry each.

    • Entries can be changed once during the competition if you feel you've taken a better shot, but please make a separate post with the new entry and edit out your old image from your previous post, to keep things in the correct chronological order.

    • Max file size 800x600 250KB. (There's info on optimising your image size in the sticky of the same name)

    Pictures to be embedded into your post in this thread rather than attached. (Use a free image host that allows hot linking such as imageshack or photobucket and encase the direct link in [IMG][/IMG] tags. There's a quick guide on how to do it here)

    • Entries should to be taken for the competition rather than entering a previously shot image.

    • Photoshop (or other imaging software) use is allowed, to enhance your image, but please remember this competition is about producing the best photo not the best piece of artwork.

    Doubt i''ll get another chance to take anything this month as I'm down in London every week until the last week of the month. So headed out to Uwchmynydd tonight and tried to get a starry-panorama, but there was just too much cloud coming in from the west. So got this quick shot looking south towards Bardsey Island (that's the lighthouse at the bottom).

    Nikon D700, ISO6400, 14-24mm @ 144, 30secs @ f/2.8

    Sorry Tig3 mate....but your photo can't be entered as per the follow comp rule:

    • Entries should to be taken for the competition rather than entering a previously shot image.
    Still time to get another shot in though...

    Eh, I only just took it yesterday? Check out the weather in Edinburgh, misty.
    All my previous gasometer pics are in the sunshine (yes I know it's sad taking pics of a gasometer) Or am I not allowed to take the same subject matter twice?

    OK, maybe your camera date settings are wrong. The date on the pic is saying 12:01:2007.

    The Exif data from your pic is as follows:

    Code:
    EXIF Sub IFD
    
        * Exposure Time (1 / Shutter Speed) = 1/200 second ===> 0.005 second
        * Lens F-Number / F-Stop = 14/5 ===> ƒ/2.8
        * Exposure Program = normal program (2)
        * ISO Speed Ratings = 64
        * EXIF Version = 0221
        * Original Date/Time = 2007:01:12 11:54:59
        * Digitization Date/Time = 2007:01:12 11:54:59
    No problem now anyhoop...as it was taken yesterday it will of course be allowed through

    Not sure I should bother this month, although it'd be nice to get another 3rd mine really suffers with the reduction in size
