  • Fortnightly Salon Competition No:48 - New Life

    Thanks to Barr1e for choosing my picture as the winner, there were lots of cracking images from everyone.
    This competition opens now and will run till 12.00 midnight on Saturday 6th Sept.
    Your mission and brief should you choose to accept it, is to capture a moment that has some 'New Life' in the frame, a short description to accompany your picture would also be nice.

    GOOD LUCK!

    Here are the rules. Please take a moment to read them prior to shooting or uploading your submissions.

    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
    11) Have fun

    cheers
    Ash.

    Okay Ash, I'll start the Salon off with this one: our neighbour's latest grandchild. This is one of a series of shots I took of a very proud new mum and her 6-week old daughter Amelie about a month ago now. Grandad proved to be a useful assistant by holding up the black backdrop!

                What a beautifully lit photograph, so soft and gentle.

                    Coupekid, I used a Sigma 105 macro lens and the sigma ring-flash. Part of a sequence from when the spawn was laid until the tadpoles emerged.

                      Well done on winning the last salon Ash!

                      How could I not enter this one, having a little one running about the house.

                      I thought I would go for something a little different, and a little humourous

                        In the Night Garden - beautiful! Does you little one sit with their eyes glued to the TV when it's on, like mine does?

                          hehe, yeah, she absolutely loves it!
                          I got her a talking Upsy Daisy, which she adores.

                              Some really great shots, I love looking at everyone's take on a theme Ive created, after winning one time I did not think I would get the chance again, and nice one Barr1e for posting something different, I did wonder if the theme was a bit restrictive, but your shot show's that it does'nt have to be something living, it can be just as much something man made, I hope this broaden's the field for people who thought they might not have a pic to enter.
                              Good stuff keep them coming.
                              cheers
                              Ash.
