    HEXUS Photo Challenge:"Street"

    Thanks to all the people that entered photos into the last competition and well done to the winner. It's time for a new photo challenge. This time the topic is "Street"

    By "Street" we mean anything to do with the term 'street' this could be a crowded market, picture of someone walking down the street etc etc. The great thing about this challenges is that you can define the subject matter and come up with your own concept.

    The rules are simple (reminder below too), you have two weeks to capture your best shot that fits the category, your shot must have been captured in the time from this post to the end of the challenge, no retro-posting please. the subject is:

    "Street"

    Usual rules apply - it's about your talent as a photographer. Editing is permitted to highlight your subject but heavily edited images that severely distort things are not the aim. I usually suggest edits limited to sharpening and levels adjust (as per-usual from a dSLR RAW file for example) but in this instance use your editing wisely. Black-and-white and colour pictures are both allowed.

    You take as many pictures as you want from now until the 24th March - that's nearly two weeks. Then you pick just ONE to submit, multiple submissions will not be accepted.

    Re-size your image to NO LARGER THAN 800x600pixels and 200K in size.

    Please email your picture which meets the above specification, I'll then upload them to a server so users can't guess which photo belongs to individual members.

    [a list of free image editing software and free image webspace providers can be found in the in the Creative section].

    Entries in by 24th March, 21:00

    nflood@gmail.com

    Please state your Hexus User name when submitting your image

    A thread will be started on the 25th March and voting will be open for five days, the exact time that voting ends will be made known. Images submitted late may not get in!

    Good luck!

    Would that be because I hosted my entry for the Christmas competion on my own server at chrestomanci.org?

    Probably sensible, I'd only do it again.
