Use one of your photos and photograph the scene again, adding the original shot in a creative way. For example, you can use a black and white photo of a building and hold it in front of the same building in a color photo, or hang a photo of a leaf in a bare tree.
Your creativity is the limit. Do not use photos you've already used in one of our contests. Make sure you also post the photo you've used in your new photo in the SBS. That way the moderators can check if that photo is really yours.
Required level: 5+ or higher. Status: finished. Check out the winners below!
friiskiwi: can we actually do a SBS for photos? ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: It looks like the option for an SBS in a photography entry is there, but it is grayed out. I think Mr. M just needs to turn it on ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jeaniblog: What's SBS? ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: See photoshop contests. They're required to prove that it's really your entry. ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: SBS=step by step guide. ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: I see why you would not have known what those are Jean. You only enter photography contests. ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jeaniblog: You're right, thanks Josh.. ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: You know, I don't think an SBS is really necessary when you think about it. We’ve had previous contests in the past (Pictionary) where multiple images were used. I think so long as we just don’t use previous entries, it will be just like any other photography contest. ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
jawshoewhah: Could a mod clarify please? ( 5 years and 3364 days ago )
k5683: sometimes I wish the SBS was available for photography ( 5 years and 3362 days ago )
k5683: yay! it is now ( 5 years and 3361 days ago )
: yay! it is now ( 5 years and 3361 days ago )
friiskiwi: I havetried to upload my 'insert' photo, but don't know how or where. Don't tell me to go to edit, the choice isn't there. ( 5 years and 3361 days ago )
MnMCarta: oh I'm so glad we don't have to show our fingers in this. I bite my nails and it wouldn't make for a cool picture. hehehe ( 5 years and 3360 days ago )
locksmagic: Well I just spent 2 hours trying to get a shot for this with no luck, kudos to all who have entered thus far! I'll be trying again tomorrow ( 5 years and 3359 days ago )
smokebigbird: Dear Mods, have been to do a sbs but have know idea how, might be a great idea to tell us that all so ( 5 years and 3359 days ago )
MnMCarta: I'm with you Locksmagic... I can't figure out how or what to do on this one! ( 5 years and 3359 days ago )
jawshoewhah: Any reason the first one was removed so I can avoid doing that? ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
jawshoewhah: IMO, we didn't need an SBS in the pictionary contest. Why is this contest any different? Adding the photographed photo to the SBS just seems unnessessary. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
friiskiwi: Smokingbird, this is the latest, new rules that can't be followed. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
jawshoewhah: Why would we take someone else's photo and try to make it fit into a scene that more than likely wouldn't fit? It would be almost impossible. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
jawshoewhah: IMO, we didn't need an SBS in the pictionary contest. Why is this contest any different? Adding the photographed photo to the SBS just seems unnessessary. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
smokebigbird: well just a my photo removed for not showing a SBS, but it was only me that had a photo removed but i dont see any photos on here that do have a sbs, so y just me ? ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
smokebigbird: ok figered it out for myself, hope its right. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )
Contest Moderator: friiskiwi was right, adding a SBS was impossible by editing the entry... A few removed entries have been placed back in the contest in order to make the necessary changes. ( 5 years and 3358 days ago )

Well Mark I have to confess, there really isn't a photo in this shot, this guy actually looks like this, but I figured nobody would be smart enough to figure it

I was going to do this idea as well but I couldn't find a model and my face is just too recognizable.
Nice shot, but don't you get tired of people telling you not to be so negative... ahahaha - you know its true when you become a dad your jokes really do become lame!
Own photo used.
I ticked I would add an SBS,
but never got the option.
I so want to attach the original, BUT HOW do I do that? (5 years and 3361 days ago)
awesome
im guessing the original photo might be the wine glass being filled up? and then you placed the photo right next to the empty glass? haha Im just guessing :P
Now this is well thought out!!! I can't figure out what to do on this contest so just gonna vote. VERY WELL DONE! YOU HAVE MY VOTE
jawshoewhah [banned] says:
It's a clever idea. So what did you do? Photograph the books first and then piece pictures together on photoshop or something? It's definitely a good example of thinking outside the square.
Great work, well executed. As Jawsh says, a good example of thinking outside the box. Well done.

Thank you all for the comments. Yes, Josh, I photographed the books first, but there was no photoshop in this picture at all. I piled the books on the table in the manner depicted in the final shot. Then I stood on a chair over the table and took different shots of them from different angles. I printed those shots in B&W as 8 by 10's. Then, I arranged the 8 by 10's on the table, overlapping to re-create the original "stack." I placed the book and glasses on top of the photos, stood on my chair again, and took the final shot. No Photoshop - Old School, baby!
dis is simply cool........gr8 idea author!!
