This competition is a way of showcasing your best photographs from the last year. Its all in the name of fun so please don't take it too seriously! Everyone is welcome to enter and I look forward to seeing all the great submissions!

BB :D

Timetable:

  • Abstract/Other (Closes 31st July)
  • Wildlife (Closes 30th September)
  • Sports (Closes 30th November)
Note: To enter the overall POTN Photographer of the Year 2005 contest you must submit a photo in at least one of these categories

Entry requirements:
  • The photo must have been taken in the 12 months preceding the closing date
  • The photo must not have been entered in the 2004 POTN photographer of the year contest (NB. I’m aware that the last contest only closed in December. Therefore, this rule is so we get a fresh new set of photos.)
  • Each member may submit one photo to each of the contests
  • This photo may be changed at any time up to the closing date for submissions
  • Post processing - nothing that substantially changes the original composition of the image.
  • Photos must be no larger than 800 pixels at the longest dimension. Also, please try and keep the filesize down to under 200k if possible to make viewing the gallery easier for modem users.
  • No framing of pictures, text or copyright notices.
  • Send your photos to potncontest at gmail dot com
  • Please include your username when you send me the photo

Voting:
  • Following each closing date, there will be two or three weeks of voting. The exact length will be a practical decision based on the number of photos.
  • Given the large number of expected entries, I’ll adopt the same voting method as the last POTN POY contest. The photos will be grouped into sets of approximately 10. The winner of each group will be put forward into a play off. A third or fourth round of voting will be used if there are a sufficient number of entries.
  • The voting system is subject to change if EE/another better option becomes available

Cool stuff.

And what if entries are accidentally mailed to your other Gmail address. Not that I have, but possible, when I'm not looking properly. :p

No worries. The other address just forwards the mails to my usual one anyway. So if you know my personal address, its fine to send them there.

A quick reminder that you have a few weeks left to submit your photos. I'll be posting up all the entries received so far later in the week.

Steve,

Yes there have been a number of photos submitted, for this and the Heat competition. I'm afraid I'm away at the moment and my internet connection is minimal so I haven't been able to upload them yet. I should have a decent connection on sunday/monday so will get everything back up to date then.

Thanks to everyone for their patience.

BB
