Remember, the selected photo will be displayed on our main site header for a week. Submit something that you and the members of our site will want to look at and admire for seven days!  This contest is for the community to choose what they LIKE (not what they dislike), with the most liked being displayed on the main site header for a week.

There is no theme this week


Submissions may be added any day of the week until voting closes. The winning image (with the highest votes) as of the close of voting will be exhibited on the main site.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Because of the delay from last week, this one will run the few days left for this week and next week. I"m in the middle of a cross country move on a short timeframe - so I'll not be around much for the next couple of weeks. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ All the details are not needed. Some basic details are nice though. Camera, lens, aperture, shutter, ISO, focal length. All the other details just make the post longer. \$\endgroup\$ Sep 5, 2012 at 9:26
