Apr08 comp “Close-up” Closed
      #635879 - 31/03/2008 23:43

This months theme is " Close-up "

Are you looking close enough?

Close-up does not have to mean macro, as it only really means closer than you would usually get. For this round we're looking for photographs that show the subject in much more detail than we are used to seeing it. It could be a brick in a cathedral wall just as much it could be a greenfly on a tomato leaf.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. PLEASE DO NOT POST IMAGES until you have read the Posting Images – Maximum Sizes etc sticky on this forum.

2. Images must not exceed 600 pixels x 600 pixels

3. File sizes must be under 100kb (102,400 bytes)

IMAGES THAT DON’T CONFORM TO THESE RULES WILL BE DELETED! Do not post TWICE in the comp - ask a moderator to correct or alter your original entry if you are having a problem.

4. Images must be embedded in this thread (click on reply in this post). - Note: Images are judged only on the size embedded in this thread.

5. Images must have a suitable title in the subject line.

7. No links please - embed only! (Technical details should be kept to a minimum)

8. One entry only per person is allowed. If you need to change it, please contact a moderator with new URL and reason why. Note: bear in mind that changes to the monthly comp are not continuous and should be used only as a last resort.

If you want comments on your work, or you want to comment on other members work, please post in the Comments thread provided.

Good luck!

PS. If you're new to embedding images in forums and you're having problems, don't forget you have approx. ONE HOUR to try something else - if at the end of that time your still having a problem, contact a moderator.

PPS. If you need help with resizing images etc, then PM me with details of the image manipulation program you're using (if you have one) and I’ll get back to you a.s.a.p.
