In this contest, your goal is to enter artistic photos of tickets. What kind of tickets, you ask? ANY KIND! Plane, train and bus tickets, parking tickets, concert, game and even lottery tickets. If it is by any definition a ticket, it is on theme. However, your entry must portray DOF (Depth of Field)
This is a technique in photography commonly used to add depth to the subject in the photo, drawing your eyes to the focus point you want the photographer wanted your eyes to lead. Still confused what DOF is? Please refer back to this contest for good examples, as well as a tutorial for better understanding DOF: Speakers DOF.
Required level: 10+ or higher. Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

jawshoewhah: Free idea: I don't live in a state with a lottery (one 3 states, what luck is that?) but I imagine most of you might. Get a photo of a lottery ticket with the numbers (TV, computer,etc) defocused in the background. ( 5 years and 3286 days ago )
rbsgrl: Great idea! I can't do it cause I am not at this level...YET! ( 5 years and 3285 days ago )
rbsgrl: But I could send you a failed lotto ticket, got lots of them! ( 5 years and 3285 days ago )
friiskiwi: I'm getting confused, so what do they want, a good deep DOF or a very shallow one, from the entries that are still here, it looks more like what the mods want is something in focus and the rest OOF. ( 5 years and 3283 days ago )
Howdie stranger! If you want to participate in this contest, just:
Great DOF and the addition of the guitar to the shot is very appropriate. I may have adjusted my lighting to reduce glare on the tickets, but that's just personal preference. Great job, author!
I agree completely with Steve, but in this shot I dont mind the little bit of glare. It's not overwhelming and you can still read the heading on the ticket which is the important part. Nice job.
Wonderful! Love the DOF in this one!
Nice shot. Heard Malaysia is a great place to go for a holiday. Any recommendations?
Excellent DOF! GL!
beautiful composition
Very nice. I think that out of focus guy on the right adds a lot
Howdie stranger!
