Participant+1
ParticipantAwesome CISS, how old were you and what camera were you using?
Participant+1 for Orionidification
ParticipantIs there an echo in here?
/In here?
ParticipantI’ve seen the first half of enough episodes of I Love Lucy to know how to get these things done
Stapler,.. You’ve got some splainin’ to do!
ParticipantOn the other hand this group tends to be procrastinators, so maybe it does not make any difference!
Is there a 12 step program for this?
ParticipantI enjoy shooting weddings as a guest. I show up with a few lenses and try to be unobtrusive, especially when it comes to getting in the way of the paid talent. It is a good opportunity to get people as subjects, there is absolutely no pressure, and sometimes it benefits the family.
Last time I did this the family was unhappy with the paid talent and seemed grateful that myself and others had taken photographs.
ParticipantI did not notice that CISS and thanks for the compliment.
ParticipantHey U-Man, my initial goal was to use Dark Side of the Moon also but I wanted to use an actual prism and (probably) manufacture the spectrum somehow (was thinking LEDs). It got too complicated quickly so I abandoned it. Glad I did, yours would have beat it I think, and funny to boot.
ParticipantThanks ZE,..
When I first lined up on this one I thought I wouldn’t like it but the more I studied it the more fun I had. I’m glad you went with “printable” albums though. Good idea whoever suggested it. I would have been out otherwise.
ParticipantAlso. Macro IN CAMERA is allowed, correct?
Not sure what you mean by “in camera”. I’ve used a macro lens in non-macro contents before, I think everyone’s OK with that. Generally it is my understanding that anything you can do with your camera is OK, but there are some grey areas. For instance, camera software is getting more sophisticated all the time and it may be possible now or at some point to do things like HDR in camera. I’m pretty sure that I would feel strongly about letting HDR fly unless the contest called for it. I think the general philosophy is to test what kind of photographer you are, and not what kind of photoshopper you are so any “traditional” photographic techniques are well tolerated, be they in camera, by changing lenses or in software used for post processing.
Kind of long winded, sorry.
As far as Phipps goes, you’ll have to consult the author of the contest (Farktographer) for a ruling. He should chime in at some point.
ParticipantHow about rust that is not on its parent bit of metal?
I guess I’m OK with that as long as it is obviously rust as defined in the wikipedia paragraph and no one else has an issue with it. My original intent was for rusty objects but I like people who think creatively and employ constructive rule breaking.

ParticipantJust have to ask because I’m in that kind of a mood: Do freckles count? Growing up I was told that my freckles were rust spots :lol:, so I just have to throw that out there.
Hah! I don’t remember ever hearing that. Sorry, but no. Dogs named Rusty, freckles, freckles named Rusty, Dog Freckles named Rusty and so on,… not permitted.
ParticipantWhile this (list) is a good idea in general, I’ve found that it is more useful to me if I print out the “Event In Progress” page, ie:
http://www.farktography.net/index.php?module=ftControl&func=display&type=user&contestID=369This gives me a big blank spot to make notes and plans.
Just thought I’s add my $0.02
