Show us shots that would be at home on the front page. Flames, fights, riots, babies, politicians and protests, if you don’t have something do what Fox does: Fake it!

[BREAKING] This just in: ennuipoet has brought us this theme. Film at 11.

Does faking it include photoshopping?

Hm good question. I had assumed not, but I’ll ping Ennuipoet to clarify for us.

Negative on the Photoshopping, Fake it means things like staging a Perp Walk with a coat over the head, or a traffic accident with Hot Wheels, that kind of thing.

Making the news would be anything you shot which ran in a news venue, online or print. Citation is not needed but I would think you would enjoy the publicity.

Taking it, well, it bleeds it leeds, fires, accidents, natural disasters…or cute and fuzzy human interest stories about the litter of kittens adopted by a cute kid.

Hope that clarifies.

Did I remember to enable voting on my second one (Sister Cities Ceremony)?

If not, could you please, Elsinore?

Wow, you guys are on the ball with great stuff already (yikes on the cop car pile up!). I have one photo so far…guess I should get it off my camera and post it.

And yes, Yugoboy, you’re vote enabled 🙂

Hrrm…I’ll have to mull this over, see what I got. Too bad I can’t use a panorama; but I’ll see what I can find.

Thanx.

That photo is the first one to receive significant attention on Flickr from anybody, and it’s been favorited by like 9 people or so (probably not a lot to some o’ you guys, but for me, that’s like 9 times any other photo that’s been favorited of mine.)

Help, please!!!

I just submitted a new pic for this contest that I shot this afternoon (actual real, breaking news), so now I’ve got four. I’d like to either remove voting from the Sister Cities pic: http://www.fark.com/comments/7774776?startid=84535207&fpost=64GmXYWqCUCfBx8qxeaY4oKTD8HjdEijZevsef0#c84533055 or delete it altogether – whatever seems more appropriate.

Thanx!

EDIT – I used the contact a mod link because it’s after midnight and the contest is live, so by the time Elsinore sees this, it may have been done already. That request was simply for disabling voting, if it’s more appropriate to remove it entirely, please go ahead.

Another mod got it–I’m so sorry I didn’t see this last night! I thought I’d checked here, but apparently I had a different thread on my screen.

No problem… It was a weird problem to have.
