  • Fortnightly Salon Competition #37 - ON WATER

    Having looked back over all the past Salon Themes I see that nothing like what I am proposing has been done before so the new theme is :-

    ON WATER !!


    It is wide open to personal interpretation Boats, Water fowl, water skiers etc, or any other twist that you can think of so long as the two words of the Theme come in somewhere. So come on let's see what you all can dream up. ! Closing Date :- 12.00 Sunday 30th March

    The Rules:

    1) All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/
    The resulting link generated for the photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the Salon thread. Please keep photos to a Max 800 pixels 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, any external links or photos held anywhere other than the Galleries will be deleted.)

    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.

      This was taken during Regatta and Carnival week last year. The main fireworks were set off from the jetty in the middle of the bay (on the right-hand side of the photo), but there were also a few that were set off on the water itself (left side), and in my opinion these were the most dramatic and prettiest.

        I had a hard time deciding which photo to put in this Salon Dennis. I have a few that I could easily have put in. This one though is one of my favourite taken from on the ship during our Alaskan Cruise last May. Somehow the bow of the ship adds some scale to the scene as we approached the John Hopkins Glacier. I looked on Google earth and you can see the exact location we were. Ice covered the water where we sailed

                  One from my recent holiday in Egypt.... Got back on Sunday, so I'm still processing! This was taken on the banks of the Nile at Luxor

                    Ok, here's mine. This one is titled:

                    "USE AT YOUR OWN RISK"

                    How can you think this woman is having anything other than a wonderful day soaking up the sun on the languid waves in Provincetown Harbor - Summer 2007

                    Processing for this image was done using a "Cross Process" action for the color I thought worked for this particular image.

                    Thanks for great subject!

                        Some nice shots so far, I was afraid after I had posted the title that there might not be many entries. Keep them coming folks so as to keep me busy after the closing date. Although I do wish one or two people would take the trouble to straighten the horizons before posting, it only take a few seconds. !!
