The challenge for this month is Shopping.
Love it or hate it we all have to do it in one form or another....the challenge is to make an image that describes shopping in some form or another, it could be traditional retail, local shops, superstores, street markets, shoppers in the street, on-line shopping, window shopping, purchases, retail marketing and advertising, packaging, payment transactions....whatever you think depicts the retail experience - whether its street style, product photography or studio set etc... its totally up to you to apply your creative preferences.....colour / mono / macro / long exposure / multiple exposure / HDR etc
Obviously be careful and mindful of photographing the public and photography on private premises including shopping malls.
For those new or shy on this forum or the many bird photographers, I would encourage you to enter. Hopefully in doing so you will challenge yourself and have a bit of fun at the same time.
Judging - is based on
* fulfilling the brief
* a good photo - creativity is as equally important as technical excellence in this challenge- (though that comes as standard as we are all using Canon Cameras obviously)
The usual rules apply:-
• The competition subject shall be selected by the winner of the preceding competition who will also judge the competition.
• One picture per person; images should conform to general image posting rules.
• All entries to be shot with a Canon EOS camera i.e. SLR / DSLR / M & R series
• Posted images should be taken during the running period of the competition. Any images submitted that were taken before the competition started, or after the competition has ended, will be deemed invalid.
• Images 800 pixels widest maximum (to help those with small monitors).
• No Photoshop frames and borders.
• Include a title; the image must convey the theme without title description.
• Please, NO comments on images- on this or another thread- until the round is over.
• No canvassing e.g. “I’m thinking of posting this image for the challenge, what do you think?”
• I will pick 1st, 2nd and 3rd favourite images (please don’t PM me to discuss my choices).
Closing date for entries is midnight Tuesday May 7th......so that covers the bank holiday (UK)
