New Themed Contest - Skin - PhotoCamel

JDArt · 07-27-2006

OK - Voting has now started. Please select up to three choices, and best of luck to those who've entered. A very high standard of submissions means it's quite a difficult decision!

The poll will run for three weeks, after which the winner will be the one with the most votes .

First of all, congratulations to dirtnapper for winning the last themed contest.

As his prize, he chose a PhotoCamel Stein from the Photocamel Store.

For this new PhotoCamel contest, the theme is "skin."

The idea for this is that rendering beautiful or unique skin photographically is one of the great ongoing challenges that photographers face. There are an infinite number of ways to render skin and present it. So enter the picture that you feel stands out in some special way.

The rules:

One entry per person.
No nudity.
Embed your picture within the thread.
Keep the dimensions of the picture no larger than 600 pixels wide by 750 pixels long.
The picture must be your own.

The winner can choose a gift of 20 dollars or less from the Photocamel Store.

The contest will run until August 24, but don't wait. Enter your picture now!

OK - I'll kick off this competition. This shot wasn't taken specifically for this contest, but it was only taken yesterday and sort of meets the criteria. It may not be very appetising, but it certainly has interesting skin

covering the lens.
I like it... hope you do too.

Well see'n as I don't see anything that specifically states the model has to be wearing her own skin...

I thought this is definitely a skin shot, and a good excuse to start posting here after lurking about for a while.
