Weekly Contest #8 - Changing Seasons
RULES (PLEASE READ ALL OF THEM) *and note a change in submission format:
-Any interpretation of the theme that falls within Autophotog.com rules is welcome.

-You must be the person that took the photo. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.

-One submission per contest.

-Images will be posted directly to the thread and must be no larger than 800px in any direction. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is under 800px for the poll. (This is so when we post the poll you can see each picture in its entirety without needed to scroll in any direction).

-All images must have a title. <---- DON'T FORGET!!!

-This week, minor cloning/touch up will be allowed however anything more than minor touch up (such as removing a major element of the photo) will not be allowed.

-Remember, the goal of these contests isn't to win, or a popularity contest... It's to get you out there shooting different things, trying different techniques and furthering your skills as a photographer. However, should you happen to win, your winning photo will be posted into the AutoPhotog Photo Contest Hall of Fame and bragging rights will be yours. You MUST have at least 10 posts & be a member for 3 days to join the contest and to vote.

-The winner of the contest will PM me with the new contest theme for the next weeks contest. If a PM is not received, I will then choose the theme of the next contest for them.

*Any photo that does not meet the above requirements will be left out of the poll.*

THEME- Changing Seasons
THEME: Summer is coming to an end for most of us. We want to see shots of things indicating the change of seasons. This is pretty broad, use that to your advantage. Whether it's a BBQ party, falling leaves or just people wearing pants instead of shorts, it should symbolize a shift in the season. This doesn't have to be limited to ONLY Summer to Fall either. Get creative!

SUBMISSION PERIOD:
Entries must be submitted to the thread no later than Thursday September 30th @ 11:59PM CST (10 days). Any late submissions will not be included in the poll. We will vote following the submission period.

-The winner of the poll will contact me about the theme for the next weekly contest. It is important to do this as to keep the flow of the short contest going. If I post a new thread w/ a contest because I didn't hear from you, please don't be offended, we just TRY to move these along at a fast pace.

**POSTING FORMAT**
PLEASE POST YOUR SUBMISSION DIRECTLY TO THE THREAD AND INCLUDE A TITLE (800x800 max).

Good luck everyone!
