Calling for SUBMISSIONS to the OCTOBER PHOTO Contest

We have a great theme this month: Something Old. Pretty wide open in terms of subject, as long as the photo conveys age.

If you'd like to enter, here's the thread for SUBMISSIONS only: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103666459

If you've never entered before, don't hesitate! Now's the time. Please read the rules in the Submissions thread and if you have any questions, you can ask them in the Comments thread. That thread is also in the Photography Group: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103666460

We are fumbling photographers ourselves, and could not take an excellent pic even if we had a great camera. Please send photos so we fans can get out monthly beauty fix. Thanks if you can help!!

We've had photographers win a contest with a photo taken on their phone!

What I've learned from participating in the Photog group, is how to frame a shot. How to choose a subject. When to use a little cropping and maybe a bit of editing for saturation or contrast.
