Entry Thread: Side Lighting

***UPDATE: Deadline extended to Wednesday Oct 20. Still time to submit!***

This week is all about finding and rocking the light - side light that is! Show us your best angle :)



Schedule reminder:
Wednesday October 13, 12:00pm (PST): submissions deadline (enter as a comment to this thread)
Wednesday October 20, 2:00pm (PST): all entries will be posted on/around 2pm. voting will commence
Thursday October 21, 11:59pm (PST): voting closed
Friday October 22: top 3 viewer's choice winners announced on/around noon PST.

Remember that you have the option to enter competitively, or non-competitively. Please make a note in your entry comment if you want to be VOTING or NO VOTING. Remember to post your SN as well, and ensure its a public permanent link of your photo (ends in .jpg, not set to private viewing only on flickr. must be clickable/downloadable I believe).

Note: while this blog is open to public viewing (and we welcome your support!), we ask that submissions only come from posters/lurkers from either The Bump photography board or the Secret Photo Nerds board. It is intended to be a forum where we can challenge and celebrate our community. If you are interested in joining either of these communities, follow the hyperlinks above, or message me. (TB is a free and public community board. SPN is by registration with a small yearly fee. It is incredibly active and well worth the cost for access to the resources and community base.)
