get pushed #46 - VOTE!

[summerfield]

first off, i am quite flattered and humbled that you voted for my photo 'moi, la diva"; am chuffed really that my photo was in the company of such great works. but as they say, "it's lonely at the top" meaning it's difficult especially when you have to whittle down 102 photographs to 5. well, i say, it just wasn't possible.

voting starts now until midnight (toronto/new york time) on sunday, june 16th after which i shall count the votes. the winner will be announced on monday night.

in choosing the finalists, i considered the challenges that were given and how well each one met and responded to those challenges. i felt these seven photographs best fulfilled their respective challenges:


#1
"hot coffee" by darinka @my_photofun
challenge: shooting from the hip



#2
"HDR strawberry and cool whip" by Debbie Christoff @corgimom
challenge: to create an HDR image



#3
"window light" by Kathy Burszynski @myhrhelper
challenge: to use window light



#4
"levi (killer eyes)" by Cheryl @cheribug
challenge: portrait in B&W



#5
"Julia Margaret Cameron-esque" by Katie @archaeofrog
challenge: a photo inspired by the work of Julia Margaret Cameron and one of the following words: swallow, glass, bent, extemporaneous



#6
"Sermon on the mount" by Donna @seahawker
challenge: recreate your favourite scene...from a movie, or from history...something that inspires you



#7
"Be very afraid" by Jani M @janim
challenge: to frighten

@summerfield @northy Wow, thanks so much for the nomination! On the (very slim) off chance that mine is chosen, I will be unable to choose the next week's winners, as I won't have internet access over the upcoming weekend ...
