(and feel free to pass this along to anyone outside of the email lists to which this is posted - I don't belong to Cosina or Rollei groups, for example) "Everyone's going digital..." So frigging what. Their pictures are lousy anyway. Time to redeem the medium, not through faith alone, but by good works. So dust off your CLE, SRT101, Hexar or Rolleiflex or whatever and produce! Theme - --------- It just wouldn't be the same on digital. Prize - ------- Another token prize worthy of a British game show. 1. If winner is in US - New Energizer 1 hour NiMH Charger (110/220V) with 4 x 1850MAH AA cells - -- A Canadian winner in Windsor could pick up the charger in Detroit at the border. 2. If winner is anywhere outside the US - US $25 via Paypal. This is a function of shipping costs. Rules - -------- 1. Picture must be taken with a film camera which you *presently* own. 2. Files should be in JPEG format, 7 quality or better (it can actually be as high as you want), 550 pixel maximum height. Make the filename the first 8 digits of your home telephone number (start with area code/city prefix). If you are gamma-savvy, this will probably be judged on an Windows machine. 3. Your email should contain name, title of photo, camera and lens used, film used, and any other special technical information. NO EXEGESIS. Save that for English 101. This is a visual contest. 4. You (whether winner or not) grant permission to display on a web with other entrants (when contest is completed). I will respect reasonable requests to watermark images with your name to prevent piracy. 5. Entries are due at 11:59pm Eastern US time on Sunday, October 19, 2003. 6. Libby's (er... the panel of impartial judges') decisions are final. Good luck! ____________ Dante Stella http://www.dantestella.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
