    Shows how good I am at procrastinating – I already forgot about this and just remembered when I saw the general chatter.

    I took photos specifically for this theme. Haven’t had a chance to sort through them yet. Looks like I’ll be skipping another week. Good luck to everyone else, though.

    This is why I love you lot so much. So much good advice for me to look through. Thanks for all the tips, everyone 🙂 I’ll give you an update once I get it all sorted out – probably post-Christmas.

    I’ll add a corollary:

    I know a lot of farktographers here are do-it-yourselfers; I’m looking more for that sort of feedback. I know there’s equipment out there to get wireless signals to nikon-brand flashes, but that means I’ll have to buy really expensive equipment. I’m wondering if there’s a roundabout way of doing it with off-brand flashes and cheap equipment – i.e. right now I have a Vivitar external flash, and am looking at getting a second, cheap one to work as the slave in the light stand.

    I’ve been trying to archive-dive but can’t find anything that I really like. I have subs, like this:

    The Gathering by Farktographer1, on Flickr
    and this:

    Clifford’s Tower by Farktographer1, on Flickr

    …but they’re definitely not winning-style entries. Bah. Damn this school stuff for getting in the way of my photos 🙁

    Amazing as always, Plama. How do you get the stars exposed so well in the first shot without overexposing the interior of the observatory?

    Holy shit, really aspidites? Is it one of those bandwidth things where you have to pony up the $$ to get them back, or just…gone?

    Nope it isn’t a bandwidth thing. I don’t have any folders in my account anymore….just gone screw it guess it’s time to open a bottle

    That’s…really crappy. Time to set up a flickr account? It’s one of the few things I was willing to spend $$ for unlimited hosting of photos.

    So….. How do we make them vote?

    Complicated virus that won’t let them leave the page until they vote for at least 1 entry, perhaps?

    I’m sure I could, but then that’d mean I have to actually go OUTSIDE 😮 Really though, the medieval route is a solid option, but I was hoping to find someone around here that had some D&D stuff so I could shoot something new. Oh well 😛

    I’ve got zero ideas aside from the far-outside-of-the-box sort. Never played D&D, don’t know anyone that did…

    I’m getting a little confused as to how the image “won’t be used for commercial use or to make a profit” but at the same time is “for advertisement.” Isn’t that what commercial use is, leading eventually to profit?

    I’d also be interested in seeing how much of your picture he’s using as a background. If it’s a focal point, then you can request more cash versus if it’s a blurred out, minor player.

    I think we need to make it a rule U-Man is no longer allowed to use his children as subjects. And maybe NBD‘s pug too… TOO CUTE

    Thanks, K. A guy at work just commented that I’m going to be bummed when my kids are all past the cute stage. I agree. But there’s no way I’m going back to having a baby in the house!

    /I would be fine if it happened…but it’s not my first choice.

    That’s when you start borrowing/stealing other peoples’ cute kids.

    Already loving the shots, everyone.

    My tree one was my last-minute shot that I got in last night. After 4 days of crappy weather, I was walking home and the skies cleared – so happy I’ve been bringing my camera to the lab with me every day. I was laying on the ground for some of the shots, having a bright, BRIGHT flash go off, and I swear dozens of people were staring at me, some wondering what was wrong with me, others no doubt questioning whether they just weren’t seeing something I was =D

    Loved this competition, great suggestion U-man!
