V3M Photo Competition Round 15 - Where You Live - 30/11/08

Post by d3k4y0 » 19 Oct 2008 09:13 pm

You know the rules now!

The topic is "Where you live", so everybody can join in on this one, no excuses!

It's a broad(ish) topic, you don't have to be able to recognise it as your home / hometown, but if you can, even better!

Deadline is midnight at the end of November (GMT)

A quick question, is this a "Volvo not necessary" competition or "makesuretheresavolvoinitunlessitsadamngoodshot" competition ?

I've changed the title, this is a "V3M" photo comp, the other competition is a "VNN" photo comp.

Sorry for the confusion.

I have a photo, but it is not from 360, there is Volvo in it, but unless you know you can't tell that there is, I guess such photo is not accepted by the rules?

If so, then I need to take another one :P

Hmm, I took a couple photos the other day that aren't too bad. They were taken several miles from here, but I guess that should be OK. No one would have known if I hadn't said it here :lol:

Okay, there's 24 hours left on this and I've only had 2 photos.

Would people like an extension on the deadline?

Entry entered :)

Is an extension necessary - in the VNN comp there were a load of entry's right at the end? But it's OK with me if people want it :)

What's the plan Stan? Weather has been pants and a lack of time meant I didn't get out for a shot, but if there was to be an extension I'd take advantage of that, if not, nee bother like!

I think, given there are only 3 entries, I'll extend the deadline to next sunday, for the sake of getting a few extra entries and to make allowances for the weather of late.

Hope everybody is okay with that...
If any of the current entries were rushed in, (not that the quality suggests that they are!) I will happily accept any re-submissions.
