  • DPNow Salon Comp No 85 is 'Public Sector Buildings'

    Many thanks to Gina for picking my pick in the 'Simplicity' comp, it right cheered me up that did .

    So for this fortnight's comp I'm asking you to do architecture but only from the public sector. So you've got Town Halls, Parliament, Tax Offices, schools universities, who knows, someone may have once designed an attractive leisure centre?

    Closing date is 11 May.

    The rules are as follows:

    1. All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/. They can be put in members own gallery if they wish. The resulting link generated for the foto/photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the salon tread. Please keep photos to a maximum of 800 pixel wide so people can see the whole image without scrolling.

    2. One entry per user ID only please, which must be the personal work of the entrant.

    3. Entries should be "in line" within the thread (not as links to an image held somewhere else)

    4. Comments only on entries are welcome within the salon thread itself.

    5. After the close the curator will indicate a winner and a couple of runners up.

    6. The curators decision is final.

    7. Winners should be offered first refusal to choose the next theme and curate the next salon.

    8. If the winner is unable to curate the next salon the current curator may offer that "honour" to any willing volunteer, possibly the entrant in second or third place.

    9. These rules are to be copied and pasted with the new theme by the curator at the top of the new salon thread with a finish date and time.

    10. As with all photos posted on DPNow, copyright remains with the photographer and DPNow will not use them without permission.

    Ok, let's see what you've got!

                Think 'James Bond' and you'll be fairly close.

                          MI5 is at [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames_House[/ame] on Millbank.

                          They don't really bother to keep it secret anymore.

                            This is an historical and old "art nouveau" public theatre from the begining of 20th century, located in a small island in the middle of the River Plate, between Uruguay and Argentina.

                            "President Urquiza Theater" Martin Garcia Island.
