Photography Contest
Since A LOT of people have been saying they're crap at photography, really, that's okay! I'm crap at it too, but this is for fun! And even if your photo isn't that good, if your writing is, well then that counts too! ENTER!!! (Before Kay sets her man-slaves on youuuu...:D)
Do you like taking pictures? Are you good at taking pictures? Well then show off your skills and compete against others for top photographer :)
Take a picture of something that is special to you, whether it be cookies that you're grandmother has made, or roses that are blooming in your garden. Once you've taken the photo, stick your watermark on it and write a short paragraph (maximum 400 words) about why it's special to you.
Send it to me, and Zoe and I will judge the photo on
- Creativity (Use your imagination and make your picture special)
- Composition (Can we tell why that thing is special? Is the lighting good?)
- Quality (re size it to 800x600)
- You may adjust the colors, contrast, and crop it in Photoshop

Comments: Kay I like this photo, I really do. I think it's very cute and adorable, the only thing that irks me is that the cat's paw is out of view, it makes the photo seem more...incomplete.
