The theme for this month is based on the concept of The Wizard of Oz. Photographers may choose to submit a photo of a wild travel adventure where you encountered different architecture, landscape, native plants and animals, or food unlike what you experience at home ("somewhere over the rainbow") OR a photo of something that spoke to your heart when you returned from an amazing travel adventure about being "no place like home". If the experience of travel has not been an option, then please submit a photo of something in your native environment that makes you happy to be where you are. The photo you submit must have been taken by you (and may not be a photo of someone else's work).
Please use a light touch in editing submissions.
I am going to be traveling myself, so Submissions will remain open until April 25th or until 30 entries have been submitted.
Preliminaries will be posted on April 26th (after my return) and will run for 48 hours. Finals will also run for 48 hours, so we should finish up before the end of April.
Color or B&W are acceptable. Have fun!
Please do NOT ask questions or make comments in the Submissions thread: please use the separate comments thread: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103657708
April Contest Rules
Host is opening submissions to allow a second entry for photographers. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of a contest. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments, no questions. The Host will start a separate thread just for comments and questions.
Once a photo is entered in a contest it is ineligible for any future contest unless the Host specifies otherwise.
The Host of the contest is the one that comes up with the Theme of their contest. They can just decide on a theme or may ask for suggestions and then run a poll to pick one of them. Either way the Theme will always be at the discretion of the person hosting the contest.
The Host also has the option of adding other rules to the contest they are hosting. An example would be no Black & White or all Black & White entries.
The Host has the option of declaring the submissions being blind (no one knows who entered which photo) or public. Should the Host op for blind submissions it is their responsibility to instruct entrants on how to get their entries to the host.
Please check the sizing on your photo before submitting it: longest side no more than 1024 px and file size < 675K If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, just ask.
The Host is the final authority in their contests.
Submissions will be limited to 30 entries maximum unless the Photography Group votes to change the limits.
The winner of the contest agrees to host the next month's contest (or recruit someone else to host the contest), and pick the next month's theme. The host of the monthly contest cannot enter the contest they are hosting.
The Submission & Comment threads will be posted in the Photography Group. The Preliminary polls and Final Contest poll will be posted in GD per Skinners permission.
The Host of the Contest may copy and paste these rules into their submission thread or post a link to these rules into the submission thread. The Host WILL copy and paste the CONTEST LICENSE into the submission thread in its entirety. (At bottom of post)
CONTEST LICENSE:
An entrant to this contest, by submitting a photograph, is giving permission for that photograph to be copied to Demopedia or to a linked Gallery and included in a DU Calendar that will display the photographs entered for this contest for the purpose of publicizing future contests and/or commemorating current and past contests. The entrant retains all other rights to the photograph being submitted. Neither Demopedia and/or a linked Gallery may use any photograph submitted for any purpose other than to display the photograph being submitted by the entrant, and neither gains any real or implied ownership rights to the photograph.
