November 2016 ... "DOG(S)"

"DOG(S)" Any photo that contains a Dog or Dogs. Very simple assignment. Just get that perfect shot of a Dog or Dogs. They can be your dog or dogs or your neighbors or at the dog park. This month we will see if you can teach an old dog new tricks. Ha!

HOW you create it is up to you. The idea is to challenge you to think outside of the box. Be creative and artistic for this one. Set it up, stage it, enhance it in post processing, or just get lucky. Your creativity is limited only by your imagination.


IMPORTANT TO READ THE FOLLOWING:

There ya go, let's get shooting! CREATIVITY/TECHNIQUE rules in this challenge, but there are a few guidelines:


1. Any photo submitted for a monthly assignment must be taken using a Nikon Camera!

2. All submissions must be taken during the month specified in the assignment thread and taken by YOU! (Please insure that EXIF is either posted with the photo or if it gets messed up, hold yourself to the honor system and add the minimum Exif data of the Camera used and the date the photo was taken to your post)

3. Obviously, for this challenge, your photo must contain something with "DOG(s)." Other than that, it's all up to your interpretation of the theme. Any photo will be accepted, SOOC or edited, doesn't matter.

4. Photos must be posted in this thread to be considered. Links to photos will not be considered an entry (In other words, no Flikr or similar links)

5. Only THREE entries per member for each assignment. Please post entries separately (1 photo per post) and number the entry.

6. Entries will be judged by the number of likes received.

7. The top 5 shots will be displayed in a separate thread, and will be displayed in no particular order.

8. This is intended to be a FUN challenge. No critiques unless specifically asked. Also, please limit posts to just photos and brief descriptions/titles. Any comments/discussion should occur elsewhere, PLEASE.

As listed in other challenges, please note: NO CASH OR PRIZES will be awarded for this Monthly Assignment.

HAVE FUN, can't wait to see the results!

(Obviously, for this challenge, your photo must contain something with "OLD.")

I guess puppies are out of the question? :)

OLD was last month's assignment.
@cwgrizz - there are two rule 2's.

I really don't see anything like what you are talking about. :cool: It all looks good to me.

Actually, thanks for pointing it out. I guess when I got in and tried to get things caught up after being away from all electronics/cell phone service, etc. for about 10 or so days, things slipped from my otherwise perfect record. :rolleyes:

I haven't checked yet, but because I copied and pasted October's blurb, it must have had two rule #2's also. Maybe September too. At least I know two people who have read the rules. Ha! I need to make more mistakes to test you. LOL

Oh ... I got this one in the bag. With a picture of Lily coming up, everyone else might as well just not even submit an entry this month. :D

Being curious as to how long it took for anyone to notice there have been two Rule 2's, I went back and looked. We started doing it with two Rule 2's in January this year. Not bad. Only eleven months before anyone noticed.

I don't think I can participate, where would I find a dawg?

Boy what a let down. I saw you had posted in this thread and thought good, she posted a photo of a dog. Then I get here and it's only a "lame" comment. Ha! We're waiting!!

I'm still negotiating with Max. He wants 5 dogie biscuits for the shoot, but I'm only willing to pay 3. Hopefully we can resolve this matter without going to arbitration before the end of the month.

One full page of comments, almost two weeks into the month and not one single dog photo. Come on people. I need to see what I am up against. Ha!
