June topic :: Contrast
Interpret that how you will, keeping in mind that the photos must be MINI related and that only one photo per member per month may be submitted.
EDIT: the winner of the monthly photo contest poll will receive $25.00 for their submission if they allow NAM use the image in the NAM Alliance magazine.
The good, the bad, and the ugly.
Now I'll have to read my camera manual to figure out how to change the contrast.

Deadline is almost here! Don't be a space (like me).
Oh... NOW there is money for the winner. When is "sunset" going to be the theme again?

I'm a sucker for a photo contest, good job I clicked on the thumbnail on the front page.

Some quirky things going on with this month's contest...
First, a big, sudden, and unexpected spike in early votes (day before yesterday, I think) for a pic that IMHO doesn't appear to be one of the obvious standouts; then
Pic #5 suddenly disappears and in its place, a cryptic note (probably deserved based on reasons that are none of my bees wax, but an interesting mystery nonetheless).
Thankfully, the cream always tends to naturally rise to the top anyway.

NOTE: I am just the messenger.
The photo submitted was in violation of the photo contest rules and this was realized after the poll was created. The poll could not be edited to reflect this change because some users had already cast their votes.
re: Cryptic note
We try to be funny, but sometimes it doesn't come out that way. So we just end up thinking that we're funny. Even though we know we're really not.
