    Hexus Photo Challenge: "Where I Live"

    Everyone got to live somewhere... so lets see it! it could be a feature or defining landscape where you live. It could be the dirty laundry piling up on your bed...just make it interesting and we'll love it!
    the theme for this round will be

    "Where I Live"

    So, give it some thought and give it a crack, be creative, it doesn't have to be a picture of your house or bed but if you live in a castle by a loch... maybe that might be nice!!
    Usual rules apply; its about your talent as a photographer so editing is limited to sharpening (as per-usual from a dSLR RAW file for example) and minor adjustments. Any massively photoshopped images (and I will know) will be discarded. again, for the purposes of this challenge BLACK AND WHITES ARE OK, you may submit either colour or black and white (includes IR black and white...Hoodi)

    You take as many pictures as you want from now until Sunday 26th February - thats a whole week and a half!! 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.
    Upload you image to a file-server and send the LINK only to the email address below, if you send your actual picture it may not be included, it is your responsibility to upload it yourself
    [a list of free image editing software and free image webspace providers can be found in the sticky at the top of the Creative section].

    Entries in by 27th March

    to hexus.creativephotos "at" gmail "dot" com

    Please state your Hexus User name when submitting your image, otherwise its hard to know who you are!

    A thread will be started at about 7.30pm Monday 27th March and Voting will commence for 5 days, the time voting ends will be made known. Images submitted late may not get in!

    so get out there, and explore your neighbourhood you maybe never knew existed!

    I actually already have an idea for this, and it involves IR, so it's good to hear that

    Now all I need is some sun. And maybe some leaves ¬_¬
