With that in mind, here's the next three mandates, all of which have a capture date starting today: Lines and Intersections: self explanatory. Due March 7th, 2010. F8 and be there: while any phot shot at F8 is acceptable, the hope is that you'll submit something journalistic, a photo where you were in the right place at the right time and just fired at will. Due April 11th, 2010 Facescape: a merciless shot of a person's face in high detail. No animals, building facades, just human beings, please! The human face is a source of endless interest, so find someone interesting, shoot them, and show us the results! Due May 16th, 2010. The shoot-in is located here: http://www.pbase.com/shootin The rulez are here: http://www.pbase.com/shootin/rulzpage I'll have sample shots and galleries posted within a day or two." I guess he didn't X-post to rec.photo.digital. Sometimes you need that X-post. -- Regards, Savageduck

But, I'll probably use human models (read "my kids") for this one. Still, those big ears, long snout, intimidating teeth and expressive eyes could produce some rather dramatic contours ... The real problem will be to select a lens that will get me in close enough for it to work. I might have to resort to a 50mm with 2X converter to get a good affect. Take Care, Dudley |
