February Photo Contest Topic

It was requested late last year that I post the topic a little earlier, so I'm going to try that for February.

NOTE: due to the early announcement of the topic, please do not submit your photos before the 1st of February. If you submit your entry before the first of February, it will be deleted when the January Photo Contest gallery is emptied at the end of the month.

EDIT: The February Gallery is now ready to accept photos


Follow this link for the: Rules and Submission Instructions The deadline for entry is the 25th of February.

NOTE: The photo contest is held to encourage people to take new photos with the topic in mind. As a result, please do not submit any photos taken before the contest topic was announced (see contest rules regarding EXIF data).


February's topic :: In Broad Daylight

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.

"In broad daylight .."

I bet there will be some interesting interpretations of that one!

Great...

...my least favorite time of day.

But at least the sun isn't straight overhead.

I keep getting visions of a MINI being pulled over

This one is a little harder simply because the daylight isn't around anywhere as much as it is 6 months from now (and its been a while since I've done daytime shooting as a result) BUt I've got a few ideas, unfortunately this is a highly opened topic so it's going to be hard to pick which one best fits the theme.

LOL guess it wouldn't be too hard to steam up the windows and get a pic from the outside.

If you go to the first post, there is a link to the rules and submission instructions. In the instructions there is a link to upload your photo. BE SURE to upload your photo to the February Contest Gallery from the drop down menu.

deadline is noon on the 25th... If I have the time then, I'll get them posted shortly after that. If not, then probably in the evening of the 25th. Given the short month, I'll do my best to get them posted as soon as I can after the deadline.

Ok, I'm in. Two months in a row that I'm well ahead of the deadline, this feels weird
