Nice. The wood grain shows well. Makes me think of the line from George Harrison song, "While my guitar gently sleeps..."

kyricom: Nice theme... but pretty close to the B&W landscape theme going on now ( 5 years and 3054 days ago )
Contest Moderator: It's actually about creating a well balanced B&W photo, not anything specifically to do with landscapes in particular. Instead of the Hi-Key or Low-Key technique, we are looking for a varied tonal range... ( 5 years and 3054 days ago )
pup531: do u hav to hav taken the photo? and also how many times can u enter? (different photo's that is) ( 5 years and 3054 days ago )
kyricom: Yes, pup... on this site all entries from you should be taken by you. You can enter up to three different shots per theme. If you click on the "help" link on the top horozontal menu it has all the rules and guidelines. Good luck and have fun!

TwilightMuse: So if the background is blurred it will be removed? ( 5 years and 3051 days ago )
Contest Moderator: According to the guidelines "Excessive blur using depth of field will be considered off theme." I interpret that to mean that if only a small portion of the image is in focus, such as some of the "shallow DOF" contests for instance, then yes, it would be off theme. Also, if you chose to enter a macro for instance,take care to watch your depth of field and ensure most of the image is in clear focus. A bit of BG blur in most images is normal IMO.

TwilightMuse: Okay, Thank you for clarifying. ( 5 years and 3047 days ago )
