  • Forthnightly Salon Competition No. 22 First Love

    Hello All!

    Thank you Trevor For running the last Salon and for selecting my photo as the winner!here is the theme for the new Salon:

    First Love



    Feel free to interpret how you will.

    OK, here are 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 August , 8 , 2007

        Well Jennifer,

        With a subject like that I just had to contribute and to share a bit of our life with you. The photo is of my wife Dianne and would have been taken about 40 years ago. I used a Linhoff 4x5 camera and FP4 film. Developed it and printed it myself and finally sepia toned it with a chemical. The resulting photo I have since scanned and this is the result.
        Anyone reading this would assume that the process is more important than the subject, but that is not so. We met in 1961 and it was a case of love at first sight. Got married about 15 months later and somehow have stayed that way. Dianne is and always has been a very creative person and a shared interest in her projects has helped glue everything together. Anyway without further ado I present my first love Dianne.



        Trevor

                    They must be intimidated by my realy true "FIRST LOVE", which being camera users you MUST sympathise with, even if you are not as old as me! Please, when judging please mark sentiment above photographic ability . . .

                            Didn't have the time to shoot anything for this salon, but I had an interpretation in mind which this shot inspired.

                            His First Love..? Himself, of course
