December Photo Theme.........Bokeh

[RoadrashPaul]

I believe the Northerners have a point about not being much to shoot at action wise so we are going with Bokeh. If you need help, get with me or about anyone else on the board (except Sarge )

For those of you that this may be your first time to enter please read the NEW rules.

http://www.bbcboards.net/zerothread?id=739318

Also, there were a few of entries last month (myself included ) that broke the exif data rule. I finally figured out what my problem was, shutterfly strips the data when I upload to it. This could be yours as well but please make sure your photo has that info available or you can post/email me the original before you post it and I will check it for you that way. I will start checking them as soon as they are uploaded.

We are going to adjust the dates a little this month as well for Christmas. Lets make it from now, Dec 2, to Midnight Dec 27th. If this causes any problems for anyone just let me know.

Paul, you need to fix the rules link. When I click the link it says "you are not a Moderator in this forum" and then I thank God

Don't go counting your votes so quickly there Paul, I haven't submitted mine yet.

However, I have yet to CAPTURE my entry as well.


I have a plan for tomorrow though. Taking the day off work and gonna spend some time setting mine up. We'll see. It sounds so simple and looks beautiful in my head.
