**July photo contest submissions**Closed

Last edited Mon Jul 16, 2018, 11:34 AM - Edit history (4)

The theme this month is Location, location, location

I'm looking for images that showcase where you live. Imagine you work at a travel magazine and you've been handed the assignment to shoot photos to show off where you live. This can be your city, town, state (or country if you're out of the US). Show us pictures of why we would want to visit.

I'll have the thread open to submissions to when we reach the limit of 30 or July 16th.

Now get out there and start shooting!


Please read the rules listed below. SUBMISSIONS will be open until July 16th. Preliminary Threads will be posted July 16th--or earlier if we reach our limit of 30 entries.


PLEASE, PLEASE, SUBMISSIONS ONLY in this thread!

Comments or questions may be posted in this separate thread:

Comment thread here https://www.democraticunderground.com/103665066

Only one entry per person. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of a contest. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments, no questions. The Host will start a separate thread just for comments and questions.

Once a photo is entered in a contest it is ineligible for any future contest unless the Host specifies otherwise.

The Host of the contest is the one that comes up with the Theme of their contest. They can just decide on a theme or may ask for suggestions and then run a poll to pick one of them. Either way the Theme will always be at the discretion of the person hosting the contest.

The Host also has the option of adding other rules to the contest they are hosting. An example would be no Black & White or all Black & White entries.

The Host has the option of declaring the submissions being blind (no one knows who entered which photo) or public. Should the Host op for blind submissions it is their responsibility to instruct entrants on how to get their entries to the host.

Please keep your entry no larger than 1024 pixels in its longest dimension and under 675K in file size. If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, just ask.

The Host is the final authority in their contests.

Submissions will be limited to 30 entries maximum unless the Photography Group votes to change the limits.

The winner of the contest agrees to host the next month's contest (or recruit someone else to host the contest), and pick the next month's theme. The host of the monthly contest cannot enter the contest they are hosting.

The Submission & Comment threads will be posted in the Photography Group. The Preliminary polls and Final Contest poll will be posted in GD per Skinner’s permission.


CONTEST LICENSE:

An entrant to this contest, by submitting a photograph, is giving permission for that photograph to be copied to Demopedia or to a linked Gallery and included in a DU Calendar that will display the photographs entered for this contest for the purpose of publicizing future contests and/or commemorating current and past contests. The entrant retains all other rights to the photograph being submitted. Neither Demopedia and/or a linked Gallery may use any photograph submitted for any purpose other than to display the photograph being submitted by the entrant, and neither gains any real or implied ownership rights to the photograph.
