  • Fortnightly Salon Competition No. 20 - The Dark Side

    Dear All

    Thanks to Coupekid for running the last Salon and thanks also for the winning vote.

    The theme this time is The Dark Side

    Feel free to interpret how you will. BUT, each entry must include a scene of variable lighting, perhaps even a shadow which adds to the picture.

    OK, heres the rules:

    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 photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the Salon thread.
    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 curator's 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 a new theme by the new 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.

    Good luck. The competition will close at midday on July 9th

    Best regards

    Josh

    I was in down town Havana when I saw the sun behind this tower forcing it into silhouette.

    I couldn't resist experimenting against the odds!

            A camera, a tripod, a torch and an untidy graveyard. What a waste of time!

              Here's my entry for 'The Dark Side'. I didn't take this with the competition in mind, I just realised it'd be a good fit into the category.

              Picture Information
              Camera: Nikon D80
              Focal Length: 65mm
              Aperture: F/6.3
              Shutter Speed: 1/640 sec.
              ISO: 100
              Edited in Adobe Photoshop 7.0 (curves and levels) and shot in JPEG format.

              Hope you like it
              Matt

                      Where was this taken? The only Gibbet I know is Coombe, in Berkshire.

                              Winter's Gibbet is in Northumberland. It's in a remote area of Coquetdale way out in the sticks ..... near Otterburn, Elsdon, Rothbury vicinity.
