    DP Salon Competition #64 - Sign of the Times
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    DP Salon Competition Number 64 - Sign (Or Signs) of the Times

    We all see things that remind us of this modern world we live in every day. With everything in this world changing so fast and things being all "topsy turvy", from international economic turmoil to one's own personal job situation, or, it might involve the environment or technology, I though it might be fun to try and get your interpretation of how this might have affected you or if you see effects of it in your daily life.

    So, this might be a homeless person on the street or a limousine in front of the exchange. It might be an old computer in the garbage or a shiny new Ipod in your hand. It might be a beautiful sunset with a wind turbine in the foreground...It could actually even be a sign. This is wide open for you to think about and have fun with.

    Deadline for entries is Tuesday 16 June 2009

    Dem rules again. 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. Please keep photos to a maximum of 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.)

    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 curators decision is final.

    7) Winners should be offered first refusal to choose the next theme and curate the next salon.

    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 the photographer and DPNow will not use them without permission.

    The Prize is the choice of either CF 8GB Ultimate or a SDHC 8GB Class 6 memory card.

    Thanks and have fun!

        Excellent theme! Apologies in advance for interpreting it so negatively...

        Why bother to pay to have your old car scrapped, when you can just dump it in a river (in the middle of an RSPB reserve, I might add!)?

                            I just thought that this might be appropriate!

                              Hi Everyone,

                              We have about 5 days left for submitting entries to this salon, so don't delay and get them in! There are some great ones so far but I know there are some photos just waiting to be discovered on those harddrives or maybe in your head. Go out and start snapping!

                              Regards,
                              Philip
