ParticipantThis is from the rules page – Image corrections are accepted. Color or value correction? Perspective? Pin cushion? Unsightly blemishes? Stray hairs falling over your model’s alabaster face? Fix these. That’s cool.
I think we changed it before the last time we did a portrait contest.

Participantyou are absolutely right. i apologize for doubting you.
guess i should have actually read “the rules” before posting. 🙁
October 21, 2009 at 10:20 pm #24752Participanti am going to enter two photos tonight. neither ended up like they looked in my mind. but they are on theme as music players and i wanted to enter something. probably shouldn’t wait until the last minute to shoot my stuff.

ParticipantI probably shouldn’t wait until the last minute either, but as much as I was inspired to do something for this contest, nothing I had and nothing I could set up felt like it was worthy. I’m submitting, just feeling out-classed.

ParticipantOrion where are all the photos?
October 21, 2009 at 11:18 pm #24756ParticipantDecision time: I have one, 1 singular picture out of all I took with the guitar, trumpet, clarinet and music stand that I’m remotely comfortable with posting. The rest are a gamble. Hell, it’s all a gamble.
B-sides:

(doesn’t actually count as music, but he did a significant portion, and that’s on the front of my Blue Skies sheet music, by the way)

http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r69/clouddancer19/Farktography/102109%20Music/100_3808.jpgWanted to put in that I did these a while ago, playing with some macro stuff. Wasn’t sure if they counted and remembered after I posted, so I’ll consider them a B-side too:

ParticipantCrap! Forgot it was Wednesday.
Now I have to go through about 600 photos and find 3 to use.
Damn procrastination!

ParticipantThese contests have made me ridiculously anal about my file organization on my computer. Now every picture I take is set in a category folder by place it was taken, with the best of those or ones that fit upcoming themes in a separate folder where they are then sorted by what theme they should be in, and then I have another place where I keep everything that I’ve used already. Just typing that made me tired.
I have about a billion B-sides this week but here’s a few:

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y220/Kestrana/Photography/Music/Music4.jpgAnd as a bonus, here’s a recording of myself playing aforementioned piccolo in college, on a Japanese piece where I’m trying to imitate the effortless pitch-bending of a shakuhatchi, because we didn’t want to rent one and learn how to play it for just the one piece. You can safely turn the volume up, since it was taped in a giant concert hall balanced for the entire ensemble, the solo part is pretty quiet, and I cut out the middle section because ze french horns, zey were not in tune and it was not the best ensemble performance.

ParticipantI was a last minute-er today. I actually had a few pix in my “music” folder, but I wasn’t remotely happy with them and none of them made the grade. If you hate the ones I picked, just think how bad the ones I skipped were! Although I have to admit they involved neither toys nor cats, and that’s a plus for some people. 😉

ParticipantNot really a B-side, but more of an homage to my long-suffering wife:

October 22, 2009 at 3:03 am #24764Participantafter some slight soul searching i dumped my second entry. concept was good, execution not so much. was going for this: bucky_bacon 2009-10-21 08:26:50 PM but his is much better. i just couldn’t get the lighting to work the way i wanted.
and this is the only contest where i have only one entry. the archives turned up marching band pictures but they too sucked.
