Photo Challenge: November "Communication"

[Chris of Arabia]

Hi everyone,

Thanks to those who took part in the October '10 challenge, the poll will be up shortly.

For this month, I have decided to set the challenge topic as "Communication". Let's see what you can do about illustrating the topic for this month. Can I also suggest the following guideline be followed:

• Shoot specifically for the Photo Challenge - don't go raiding the archives, that's not a challenge
• Think about how people (or animals) communicate, what do they use to do it with, what happens when they communicate (well or badly). How would you show it?
• Make it funny, make it sad, make it touching, just don't make it boring.
• The Challenge is about making you think and helping you improve the way you take pictures and the end results you get, so make an effort, get out there, try something different, but most of all, have fun!
• Good luck

The prize for the winner of the vote, as always, will be a $25.00 Amazon voucher courtesy of the TPF owners.

Please email your photo to [email protected] and remember to enter the subject as indicated.

All photos must include the form when submitted. Just copy and paste it into your email. This will ensure that no mistakes are made when photos are submitted and therefore, hopefully, no photos are excluded. If the form is not included in the submission email the photo will not be included in the challenge gallery and voting process.

There is more important information regarding rules and procedures located in the FAQ section. We highly recommend that you take the time to read these FAQs.

Good luck to everyone and have fun with this challenge!

*150KB will be taken as the “size on disk” and not the actual file size. Also some email programs consider 1KB=1000Bytes as opposed to 1KB=1024Bytes. When these programs calculate attachment size they will often read larger than they actually are. To be safe we recommend a target size of about 140KB so that once sent it does not go over 150KB.
