This contest should showcase your best quality work, demonstrating at least moderate skill with a camera and a general understanding of the artistic aspects of photography. 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.

Penny Farthing

Vintage "Penny Farthing" bicycle.

Stored in "Dropbox". Opening with Chrome return an ~= 2 mp image. Saving to disk and opening returns the full 12 mp image. In the latter you get the marvellously ancient feel of the pedal metal.
