    The ones I didn’t use for this theme (as well as the ones I did) can be found here

    At least some of them can be used in upcoming themes 🙂

    And nice photos as always soosh 😀

    OK, me too! The list of finalist I chose from is here. It shows the versions of the images before I cleaned up scanner dust/scratches but I’d already cropped them at least.

    Foggy cemeteries are always dark and forbidding…

    Those photos are definitely dark and forbidding, but HDR isn’t allowed unless otherwise specified. Dunno if all your entries were HDR, but the one was used in the HDR 2 theme, and the others look similar.

    None of these shots are HDR. I learned only after the HDR2 contest that what I thought was the HDR process wasn’t (a side benefit, I suppose, of these ‘fun’ contests). — Probably explains why I received no votes! 🙂

    So… they were admittedly misposted in the HDR2 contest, but do seem to hit all the rules and criteria for the ‘Dark and Forbidding’ Contest. I hope they can be accepted.

    Cheers!

    Yeah, if they don’t combine exposures and/or have spot treatments, they should be fine other than the one that was used before (we generally only allow repeats for the Anniversary contest)

    Absolute shit week for me. I did terrible. Couldn’t get any good shots cause it was windy and the moon wasn’t right or even out much in the last week. The one good night I went out I forgot my tripod =(

    meh, with Dad passing, I knew I wasn’t going to go shooting for this week, and I knew the one shot in my archives that I figured I’d use wasn’t the greatest. It was mostly to say I participated. I loved seeing what everyone else came up with, though. This was a good theme; might have to repeat it at some point…

    This is a little off topic, so I’ll keep it brief and will relocate the another thread if you prefer…

    The note you posted about your father, and the photo, was an extraordinary celebration of his charm and I found it very moving. I just wanted to let you know I thought it was wonderful, even if it did make me all bleary eyed and weepy at work!
