There's only been one vote!

Doesn't matter. I only have to look at the other photos to know. :tooth

I really really liked #2, but it seems like the editing might be a little more than what I would consider acceptable. Besides, once I scrolled down to #3 my decision was made. Gorgeous!!!

:nod: I'm trying to decide between those two myself.

looks like just a simple change to b/w of the background :dunno

#3 looks like a fairytale setting, simply beautiful, #2 is such a creative play off the theme, #6 and #7 are both perfect capturings of reflections... UGH I need to think on this...

To me, that's outside the scope...but, then again, I would support a no editing rule, myself. To each his own.

now you know why i allow minimal photoshopping,light etc

Number 2 is a good photo and I like it but beyond the minimal chopping rule...

 

[Siphorous]

...but - it's in the comp now and everyone is free to vote for it of course if they so wish.

I'll revisit the rules / intro thread later on Sunday to expand on what exactly 'minimal' means though.

Great submissions everyone!

I allowed number two because it seemed 'minimal' to me, as it's the kind of simple technique you can do on a phone app :dunno



If anyone feels it's not in the spirit of things, all they have to do is not vote for it

I think that would be a good idea. Thanks, Siph.

With or without the effects, #2 is a very nice composition. It's definitely one of the options on my shortlist.

Agreed. It's an absolutely FANTASTIC photo.

Ha! I agree, I can't edit shit... but I could do that on right on my camera phone.

 

[Kakapo Dundee]

Perhaps it's important to remember that we are all friends, and this is supposed to be fun.

 

[Darrell]

Put the torches and pitch forks away.

It is shameful how you guys are criticizing submission number two.

Don't you guys think it should be at the discretion of the league host whether or not a photo received too much post processing?

It's not right to openly put someone on blast like you are doing. All of you would feel like shit in their shoes.

OK, wait...how is #2 beyond the minimal photoshopping rule? All that was done was changing most of it to B&W. Sounds pretty minimal to me.
