Congratulations to this week's winners, and thank you for everyone who participated through submissions and/or polling.

Reminder that there is still time to submit for this week's theme: Pink. This is a very special week, in honour of Breast Cancer Awareness. Show us your colours HERE!

Entry Thread: Pink

2010-10-01T16:10:00.000-07:00

In honour of October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the first POTW theme for October is fittingly, PINK.

A fellow SPN'er r9stedt is spearheading an awareness project of Pink photos for breast cancer awareness. Our goal is to bring all photos together by October 10th, and combine them into a video collage to help spread awareness and encourage support for those who have fought, are fighting or will fight this terrible disease. Your submission to the weekly POTW can still be from your archives, but our hope is that this theme will encourage you to take a new pink photo in honour of this campaign, and that perhaps you will send it in to be included with the video collage. The reference to breast cancer awareness does not need to be (but of course can be) overt. It is still however you choose to interpret it.

2010-08-25T14:10:00.000-07:00

k, a few ground rules for voting (I know, rules suck, but even Fight Club had rules):

1. Voting will be open from 2:10pm Wednesday August 25 - 1:59pm Friday August 27 (PST).

2. Please do not vote for your own photo (honour system here).

3. NEW! As requested by the community, you may only choose up to 3 to vote for.

5. The top 3 vote getters will receive bragging rights for the week.

Notes on this week's theme: Bokeh

Definition: bokeh is the blur, or the subjective aesthetic quality of the blur, in out-of-focus areas of an image, or "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light."

Put your judging hats on! Good luck everyone :)

A note on voting: select up to 3 options at one time, THEN hit vote. If you don't, the system will only let you vote once and you can't go back to revote.

Your Submissions: Bokeh

2010-08-25T14:09:00.000-07:00

Officially best turnout ever! Fantastic job. I am so glad I am merely tasked with the job of presenting the entries, not selecting a single winner :)

Everyone opted to be included for voting this week. Woot!

2010-08-18T13:36:00.001-07:00

k, a few ground rules for voting (I know, rules suck, but even Fight Club had rules):

1. Voting will be open from 1:35pm Wednesday August 18 - 1:59pm Friday August 20 (PST).
2. Please do not vote for your own photo (honour system here).
3. You may only choose 1 to vote for (hard, I know!). In the event of a tie, we can do a short vote-off over the weekend.
4. I truly hope this goes without saying, but please do not share this link and solicit votes from friends/family. The intent is to poll our direct community - regular posters/lurkers on TB or SPN. This is an honour system people! If I see numbers swell above our regular lurker status, I will shut it down and look at alternative ways to poll. I really don't want to use comments and have to manually add things up myself, so please, lets all play nice and let the system do the work for us!
5. The top 3 vote getters will receive bragging rights for the week.

Notes on this week's theme: Leading Lines

Definition: Leading lines are lines within an image that leads the eye to another point in the image, or occasionally, out of the image. Anything with a definite line can be a leading line. Fences, bridges, even a shoreline can lead the eye.

some examples here and here

Let the games begin!

Aug 6 - 12 Call: Mood

2010-08-06T14:37:00.000-07:00

NOTICE: Changes to how to enter are now in effect! Please read below carefully.

While we make the transition to separate voting and non-voting challenges, I thought what I would do is add the option to be voted on. So both those looking for competition, and those just wanting to play for fun can enter. So now, when you post your picture, list your SN and whether you want it to be a VOTING or NON VOTING entry. I will post all pictures a day early now, so photos will be accepted through Tuesday August 10. Photos will be posted on Wednesday August 11. At the same time I will add a poll option for all voting entries. Viewers will then have Wednesday and Thursday August 12 to cast their votes. Winner will be announced Friday August 13 along with next week's theme! The top 3 choices will get bragging rights and cool Voter's Choice buttons :)

So without further ado, the theme for August 6 - 12 is Mood. Be it lighting, subject or photographer's emotional turmoil while getting the shot :)

great work everyone. What a way to end the great reign of POTW!
As you may know, with the forum move for the majority of posters, we are discussing big changes to how POTW is handled, the least of which is we likely need a new url and name change for this blog. Stay tuned for the exciting times ahead!

Once again, thanks for the wonderful turnout last week.

This week's theme is Shutter Speed. Either slow it down or speed it way up. Shutter speed can be used to capture an image in so many ways: freeze motion, or blur it. Capture moving light, or the stillness and fullness of the moon. So go high or low for this challenge and show us what you got!
