Hmm, this throws a lot into question. I won a couple of months ago on a clearly photoshopped multiple exposure. that is a step beyond HDR but I (personally) consider HDR to be the same picture, it is just given more range.

The people still vote so if the people don't like and over done HDR shot then they won't vote for it right? we are still the voters.

I'm all for levelling the playing field and making things inclusive for everyone but I'm not decided on if rules are the way to do it.

This post is just my opinion for consideration, I'm not saying this is what I think and this should be the way its done etc.

I like to see the different types of pic personally, so have no problems. As long as folks are up front about it.

We don't all have the equipment to produce them (oo-er) but I don't want to stop the creativity of those that do. Plus this is meant to be a bit of fun for days when we're not out on the bikes, not a rigidly enforced strict competition.

Just for interest, these are the standard guidelines we use in our competition which are about the same as everyone else's.

Adjusting your image: The faithful representation of what was captured at the time of the shot being taken must be maintained.

Digital adjustments are only acceptable if limited to minor cleaning work (removing dust spots), levels, curves, colour, saturation and contrast work. Sharpening and minimal cropping is allowed.

Compositing, sandwich shots and double exposures are not permitted. Adding or removing distractions, items, people etc into/from the image is not allowed. Pictures that have been digitally manipulated in breach of these rules are not eligible.

I agree with Trev & Brett. Its a bit of fun, no prizes are going to be won, just people voting on other peoples attempts at a hobby. I'll also be honest & say that the photo comp is about the only thing keeping me on the forum these days

+1 Agreed, as only one image is entered and you clearly state in the wright up of the photo what you did and it's your own work or you are in the photo then it is an entry.

multiple entry's are not allowed, multi layered of the same image are.
now lets stop and carry on.

best wishes and seasons Joy to you all
Love
Richie.

That's not a bird, it's his novelty tripod.

How does the U rating apply to the photo thread. I've got quite a few pictures that would fit in this months category, but some of them might be a bit close to the bone(r).

If it's exhibited in a museum, would it be OK?

It's a roman figure, Totally U-rated :0) and it 's an entry.

wasn't he a minor rustic fertility god, protector of livestock, fruit plants, gardens and male genitalia. I thought that Priapus was marked by his absurdly oversized, permanent hard on, which gave rise to the medical term priapism. I believe he became a popular figure in Roman erotic art and Latin literature, and is the subject of the often humorously obscene collection of verse called the Priapeia.

of course this information came from somewhere else :0)
