CHAT: Weekend Competition 12-14 March - FILL THE FRAME
 
Take a picture this weekend in which nothing but your subject (or a part thereof) is in the frame. Get in nice and close if you need to.

There is one caveat - I think it's time to take a little break from Photoshop et al so for this week only there should be [B]MINIMAL POST-PROCESSING[/B], including in-camera corrections.

Hopefully there will not be a lengthy debate about what this entails so use your judgement. But as a guideline, you can make global corrections to address issues with contrast, exposure, or colour. This means
- cropping is allowed
- basic adjustments in Levels, Curves, Brightness/Contrast et al are OK
- light sharpening is OK
BUT
- no composites
- no spot editing (except to clean up sensor dust)
- no mono conversions
- no frames or borders

Good luck all.

Something like this you mean? Snow......sorry for the editing but I've had to give it a bit of a blue tint otherwise you wouldn't be able to see it at all. :-) There's plenty more where this came from, snow is something that we're definitely not short of - ask Sarasocke.

Simple but effective Forseti - love the way it draws you in. Makes you think - of nothing ;)Maybe if you found some yellow snow to focus on

Forseti 11-03-10 04:10 PM

OK - yellow snow coming up over the weekend (must be a dog around somewhere :)). Well I'm guaranteed one vote then at least- thanks jinky. :D

You give some people an inch and they take a mile! :p Nice one Forseti, I like your thinking... ;)

Sarasocke 11-03-10 06:23 PM

I think I could manage with the yellow snow ;)

Actually not much left here now. More forcast for the weekend tho, so I should be OK :(
