I actually got my camera wet shooting this fountain this week.

The sailors and boats are wet. All my gear was wet (and salty).
And I used the wet plate collodion process to make this 6x9 in. tintype from a digital inter-positive.

Please give me about 5 hours for judging. Just before lunchtime here, I'll do it as soon as I get home from work.

Be Prepared!. Well, I'm not really prepared, but here I go anyway.

1st: Timphoto. Great shot of the falls and the tiny little people are, surprisingly small once you see them. A little rainbow effect too.
2nd: Cuypers1807. I'm a sucker for dramatic skies and in this case, it's just a backdrop for a great action shot.
3rd: dilorenzo1954. A fun photo, I like the different poses with one subject looking towards the camera.

In order of posting:

OldCrow: Bonus points for having the word 'wet' in the photo.
LtDave: It's definitely wet! Some good action shot potential if they still played.
RDWP: Some cool water dynamics there.
TerryPink: Cool. I like the light rays passing through the fountain.

Handover to Joby for the next challenge.

I'm confused. Did Tim win or did I?

That makes 2 of us.

Either way...what does the group wish since it's already Friday?

Should we extend the next deadline back to next Monday September 26th?

Or make Challenge #725 a short one and due Monday September 19th?

I'd go with extending the next deadline to Sep 26th when you decide who is the winner.

Nice photos btw. Great job everyone.

Agree with Don...this way we sorta get back on Monday deadlines
