  • DPNow Salon Competition No 89 - PETS & ANIMALS

    Thanks to Gina for picking me as the winner of her Abundance salon!

    The theme for Salon 89 is.... PETS & ANIMALS. Let's see some pictures of your dogs, cats, birds, horses... whatever you may have for a pet. And if you don't have pets, any animal will do! Looking forward to seeing your entries. Have fun... and good luck!

    Closing date is July 26th, 2010 at 12:00 GMT.

    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 witin 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.

    I'll set the ball rolling

    Here's Rosie taken just over a year ago, about a month after we received her from the Rescue Hen people:



    So that's my entry - and here is a photo of Rosie taken just the other day:

        What a handsome fella (assuming Milo is a lad!)

        No exif data in the gallery? Is this by choice?

          Ian more by habit than anything - I am in the habit of hitting "save for web and devices" in Photoshop which, I believe, strips all the exif data out ! I must get into the habit of saving directly to JPEG instead. Is there anything in particular you wanted to know ? BTW Milo is a lad !

                PS CS4 and later Save for Web does now allow metadata to be retained if you require. I was curious about the focal length and aperture mainly.

                  Spotted in Puerto de Vega, Spain.



                  No pets, but this little fellow looks cute enough, although he didn't seem to trust me, judging from that beady look!

                    Thanks for the CS4 tip Ian - have just upgraded so will look into that. Milo was shot using my E3 + 12-60, 1/200th sec, f9, ISO 100, flash using my Elinchrom two head DLite setup.

                            Tiger cubs - not household pets.

                              Long time since I've been around, but the theme is perfect for a shot taken tonight.
