Aug '06 Challenge Photos - "Absence"

[TwistMyArm]

Hey everyone thanks a lot for participating! We have another great group of photos this month. There are 40 photos in all.

Absence

You may notice that in the gallery some files appear larger then 150KB, but every photo included was less then 150KB when uploaded to the gallery.

Please keep in mind that we are trying to keep this challenge anonymous (and unbiased) when it comes to both the submitting and the voting. Please avoid sharing your opinions about any specific photos until after the voting has completed and the winner is announced.

Please read the titles carefully in order to avoid confusion before voting. The photos may not be sorted in the correct order so to ensure you view them in proper order scroll to the bottom of the page and where it says "Display Options" ensure you select Sorted By: "Image Name" Sort Order: "Ascending" and then click on the "Show Images" button.

After viewing the photos please take the opportunity to vote for your favorite. Good luck to all. If there are any questions please let us know.

The winner of the photo challenge will be contacted by Private Message (PM) on the day that the winner is announced. If the winner does not respond to the PM within 30 days they will not receive their prize and it will be put towards a future challenge. If we are unable to ship the intended prize to the winner do to his/her location we will provide another prize of equal value.

The polls will be open for the next seven days.

some very nice photos this time, that's for sure. not a whole lot of them convey absence to me that well, but the ones that do, mmm boy!

I agree with thebeginning in that a lot fo the photos have absolutely nothing to do with absence, at least in my eyes, but some of the ones that did were absolutely fantastic.

I found the same thing, but then again, there are some where if you stare at them long enough, the individual's interpretation of the theme comes through.

Hard choice everyone

Have to agree. Finding the interpretation of "Absence" in each image has really intrigued me. Some are very clever.
