Photo contest guideline questions - Page 5 - Wildlife Gardeners

Thank you, Fearless and the other administrators, for taking the time and effort to think this through and come up with sound, reasonable, and simple guidelines.

Fearless Weeder · 07-12-2009, 09:14 AM

You're welcome.

As stated previously, it was our intent for contest photos to "accurately reflect the subject matter and the scene as it appeared".

We're glad the issues were raised so we could address them.

Thank you, Fearless. Simple and practical rules are always good.

A lot has happened while I was gone. Great!
I'm glad to see one set of rules has been established for all the contests.
Newbies (Myself included) needed that as we all had missed your discussions about it in February.
Where will the sticky thread be located for future reference?

The new thread is in global announcements. It appears at the top of every forum.

Ok I'm lost. Where is that?

FW, where does WG stand on basics like enhancing contrast? Assuming nothing is added or subtracted and keeping in mind much outdoor photography is done in poor lighting conditions.

An example of one shot NOT worth posting cropped and tweaked for my blog (ignore the sig please)

havalotta · 07-13-2009, 09:11 PM

IMHO-I like the color in the first one better (it is richer looking) but then again the closeness of the second.

What's not worth posting about either of those photos? They're both better than anything I've ever posted.
