    Can we start a betting pool of how may Bean shots there will be?

    Over/under 10? Take your pick.

    Does No People = No representations of people (e.g. the reflection of a statue)?

    Not sure where to ask, but as it relates to one of my entires for this week: It’s okay to Photoshop license plates into blurrification, right?

    I don’t think that would be a problem.

    It’s a spot treatment, which technically isn’t allowed, but we’ve had folks blur license plates and addresses on medicine bottles before and no one’s been concerned by it. It doesn’t confer any particular advantage like other retouching can. You might put something with your entry post that states you spot blurred the license for privacy, just so everything’s clear as to what you’ve done.

    I guess we could put language into the rules specifically allowing this sort of thing, but it’s not something that happens very frequently, and I wouldn’t want to open the door to it being abused in any way. Dunno…anyone have any thoughts on this?

    Blurring a license plate seems fine to me.

    Clarification, the source of the image reflected cannot be included in the photo, correct?

    Yeah, you can’t have the actual object in the photo.

    What she said. I think that it would be a good idea to just state that the plate has been blurrified. That way, people would understand the reasonable flexing of the rules.

    What about light reflecting on something and making a projection, or is that something else?
    This is what I am thinking of using, but I don’t quite know if that qualifies as a reflection…

    Um… I am referring to the bow-tie shaped reflections of the sunlight on the building’s windows.

    along the lines of what i’m thinking of using, but yours is way better!
    It’s simply a reflection , not a reflected image….should (hopefully) be ok. [/i]

    See now, I see that more as a shadow than a reflection, so I wouldn’t think it would quite be what theme is getting at. But maybe XenPix can weigh in with her take on it.
