BASIC CONTEST/CHALLENGE RULES:

Only one entry per person. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of a contest/challenge. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments. The Host will usually start a separate thread just for comments.

Please try to keep your photograph entry no larger than 800 pixels in its longest dimension and under 200K in file size. If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing just ask. (Contest Host note: I strongly recommend limiting vertical images to 720 pixels on the longest dimension, as you want your image to be able to be seen in full without the viewer having to scroll the image on their computer screen.)

For seasonal contest winner agrees to be available to assist in hosting the next seasonal contest, should the hosts require such assistance.

Be sure to read the following before you enter a photograph.
