Photo contest?
Just kicking around an idea for a photo contest among our readers??? We have so many skilled photographers, along with lots of folks visiting beautiful areas and of coarse, big, lovely fishes :D
I dont know if there should be a prize or not. Maybe the picture could grace the main page of this forum somehow. I dont know how hard/easy it would be to "wallpaper" the main page with a photo? Nobody could submit more than one picture and we can all vote?
Just a thought :idea: :?:

That sounds like fun! I think that we should have a few different types of photos though, landscape, fish portrait, and some type of artsy abstract picture. What do you think about contestants submitting 3 different types of pictures?
-
Maybe do one category at a time?
-
I would agree with Bill. Lets do a different category every month? Great idea Jay!

Good idea about the on a month choosing different subjects. What should the subject be this month?
-
How about your favorite fish portrait?

Sounds good to me, but I think we should have two classes of photos;
1) Taken by a point and shoot
2) Taken with an SLR
Because SLR's can do much more than a point and shoot, plus you guys can use professional gear unlike us with p&s cameras. P&S cameras can't fairly compete against SLR's!
Here's my p&s submission :

Cool! This should be fun! Now I have to dig thru all my pics 8)
I am terrible at organizing stuff so I dont know exactly how to make this an organized vote/poll. Maybe we should somehow tag a number to each photo so people can vote on the picture number.?? I have seen some threads that are formated as polls or votes. Maybe that will work?
This pic was taken with a pretty low quality P&S. But its one of my favorites.

Hey Guys,
This all sounds great BUT if you want it to be a photo contest then I would have to say you do all settings on the camera and NO photoshop involved.
This would have be on a trust system
A good photograph shouldn't have to be touched up if you use the right settings, filters, etc..
