It Is Time to Vote

Rules:

One vote per person

Because of number of entries, there will be three winners
  • 1st place - 8 x 10 picture of choice
  • 2nd place - 5 x 7 picture of choice
  • 3rd place - 5 x 7 picture of choice

If you are a winner, please note that Dennis has lost a number of high resolution files over the years, so not all the photos in his gallery are suitable for reproduction/printing.  Best to choose photos that were taken in 2010 or later.
You can find Dennis gallery at www.pbase.com/photosbydennis


VOTING ENDS - Oct 11 @ 2359h CDT

Hey folks,

Dennis had a bit of work on his plate and he sent me the photos late Friday and then Saturday was a total wash for me, so they will be up today (Sunday) and you will be able to consider them at your leisure as voting won't end until Oct 11th.

And as a teaser, Dennis has been working on his world-famous (we hope) calendars for 2016 and from what I have seen so far, his choices look wonderful.  No timeline on that however, since Dennis is a wee bit ahead of schedule on the calendars this year, you will have plenty of time to place & receive your orders well (well) in advance of Christmas ... more on that when Dennis has made his final choices, lots of wonderful photos to choose from this year and Dennis likes to give all our resident birds a showcase if he can.

And yes, when the calendars are ready for order everyone will get notices through the Forum and we will post the links et al on this board.

Happy Sunday,
TPC

Apologies to everyone - send your entries to: photosbydennis at shaw.ca  OR  find Dennis' name in the members list and click on the envelope icon.

(I haven't put the @ in Dennis' email so the spammers/bots hopefully can't read it as an email address  :))

Dennis' 2015 Summer Photo Contest
« Reply #1 on: September 16, 2015, 10:12 »
on behalf of Dennis as he is very busy processing photos at the moment!


Give me your BEST SHOT ... summer photo contest has been extended with a NEW DEADLINE ... all entries must be received by Sept 30th
 
You will receive another email when photos are uploaded on the forum and then the voting will begin...Good Luck.
 
The general rules are as follows:
  • Photo must have been taken by you
  • 1 photo per person
  • Contest is open for any subject
  • Title is required for your photo submitted
  • Voting will be done on line at the forum
  • Prize for 1st. place...8X10 of your choice. 2nd. place 5x7 of your choice

 
*** Side Note for Whoever Wins ***

I have lost a lot of high resolution files over the years so not all photos are suitable for reproduction, even though they are in my galleries.
All photos are dated so I would say to this year's winners, choose 2010 photos or newer - best chance to have a good quality reproduction!

Any questions, post them here!!
