Sorry it took me so long to start this thread. It's now time to get ready for the 15th round of the RHP Photography Competition! The theme of this round is "Home" (can be in your home, or just in the locality that you would regard as home). You can enter up to three pictures for voting. Additionally, you can enter pictures you would like people to see and comment on outside the competition. Pictures in that section will be displayed on the same page, but people won't be allowed to vote for them. It's entirely up to you to decide which pictures you want to have in which section (voting / no voting), as long as you don't send more than three pictures for the voting section. Send your entries to rhpphotocomp@gmail.com , together with the following information:

* Title
* Comment: Advanced editing, for example removing or adding objects, use of special effect filters or major colour adjustments, must be mentioned. Other comments, for example details about the equipment and settings, basic editing or some background info on the picture, are optional, but encouraged. If in doubt whether something is basic or advanced editing, just ask, or even better, simply give a little more information than absolutely necessary.
* Your RHP nickname (that won't be revealed before the round is over)
* Which section the picture should be in (I'll assume it's for the voting section unless otherwise stated)

Please keep the file size under 200 kB, and the picture shouldn't be bigger than 1024x768 (I'd suggest 800x600).

The deadline for entering is Saturday, 1st July, 20 UT. Let me know if you need more time. In the non-voting section, pictures can also be added later.

The pictures will be displayed on my webspace. You can choose to have your pictures removed when the round is over. You can also choose to leave them there, but have your name (real name or RHP nick) added.

If you are new to the competition, you might want to have a look at previous rounds:

Thread 39665 (Chess)
Thread 42170 (Still Life)

This round will be followed by:
16. Words / Letters
17. Advanced Editing
18. Blue/Red/Yellow (people enter one picture per colour; voting is for each colour and an overall winner)
19. Movement/Motion

If you have further questions, ask them here or send me a PM.

Thanks again Nordlys and welcome home.

A question though. Given that my last entries where borderline "extended motion" I thought I'd make sure this time 🙂

Are we saying that "home" means things around the house/garden and also potentially nearby locations?

Takk.

I would think around the house / garden, but probably not nearby locations. But it was Spreadsheet who came up with the category, so he would be a better person to answer your question.

To be honest, I was never too sure.

Initially, I thought it could include, say, your home town and surrounding areas, but that's probably way too general.

I think your definition of the round is probably the better one.

What if it is a certain location that you visit regularly (and stay at) which has become like home?

I would consider "can be in your home, or just in the locality that you would regard as home" to include such locations.

I like this definition. Is this the one we're going to use?
