    This challenge is to provide an image which backlights the subject.

    Some examples:
    32E93A40662E4A0A8DD51347CDD54044-0000322011-0001930779-00640L-BE25FB5D34674FD692FA1D5DF589584C.jpg

    A4E4E0A8CE1E4726BEB52228145937AA-500.jpg

    3BE946AA5E5C4CFDA106F21677100C24-500.jpg

    6BC8674ED7AF45839F86BB2A54E5FAE8-500.jpg

    14E60B5198954C9A9913F72D4EDEA7A1-500.jpg

    The rules:
    -Photos must be posted within 2 weeks of the day the task was set– so the closing time/date is 8pm on Monday 18th October 2010.
    -No old photos. Only photos taken with this task in mind qualify.
    -Therefore, the photo must be taken after 8pm on the 4th October 2010.
    -Photos must be on the given task.
    -ONE photo per post. Submit as many posts as you like.
    -Stretch yourself – there is no limitation to what you can do to produce the image.
    -The next task/subject is to be chosen by the person who has the most thanks after their post at the closing date/time (the post must include a photo).


    -Hopefully this thread will be used for Photos and ‘thanks’ only – any discussion on the overall Theme or on Photos submitted (including C&C which is welcome) should be posted on the assignment ‘Discussion Thread’.


    Best of luck!

    Coincidentally I happened to be messing about with off-cam flash this morning :)

    That's fine. But the challenge does not start till 8pm this evening. Could you not post this image in a discussion thread for this challenge?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Oh right, I thought once it was put up it had started. That was meant as an entry. I'll remove it.

    Interesting to see how Pete and Noo Sixty have voted for each other - but not for one other person

    Naturally they'll vote for one another but if they don't personally like any of the other photos posted- why should they vote?

    Why is it natural that they would vote for one another?

    Well I know if my girlfriend/wife/partner was posting in the same threads as me they'd get a vote of thanks regardless.

    Incidentally here's 20 pages of posts thanked by Pete:

    and 20 pages of posts thanked by NooSixty, including at least one post by yourself keps:

    I get beaten up if I don't vote for her.

    Relationship or not, thy should vote for others too, that is plain unfair. Anyway ...

    So, to reverse the logic, by this reckoning, you can't vote for Pete, NooSixty and/or the alter ego, unless you're shagging them. :eek:

    Why is it unfair? Am I not allowed to vote for what I like? Do you do that?

    I think it has been shown that I do not exclusively vote for Pete. I think there have been discussion previously where you have stated it's not right to give "sympathy" votes, so why am I getting grief for not giving them?
    :confused:

    I was only going on the initial complaint, 'If' it was a case that you only voted his images, it would be unfair. And that is just like I mentioned before. Some purposely don't vote mine because they simply don't like me, that's life ... But I don't think that's the case with you. Just saying ;)

    I see neither of you voted my current one, no likey? of tactical? :P

    Pure tactics......... :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,944 ✭✭✭pete4130


    I generally see an image before I see who has posted it and my inclination to vote isn't affected by the user. These isn't anything as sinister as tactics. It's meant to be fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,570 ✭✭✭sNarah


    ...Wee little mod note...

    As interesting and fascinating I'm finding this love story, everyone can thank whoever they want and don't want too, and Keps mentioned above that he might have been a little bit wrong in bringing the issue up. So, back to the backlighting and less of what Pete and NooSixty get up to!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Of course, you're right. Now it's tactical thanking :D dear, oh dear. Of course they're allowed, still doesn't mean it's fair, that's all ;)

    Just to reiterate sNarah's point and to repeat once more - I am totally disappointed in myself for raising the issue- in fact I was scared to log on to the site tonight.

    Thanks for not being too hard on me
    .


    The site is about photos - so let's photo
