*As always:

• Start a single thread containing the photo (attached or embedded) you'd like to submit in our submission forum.
• Do not add your submission as a reply to this thread
• One photo per user. Please post only one submission thread. Our automated system only checks the latest post within your first thread, so if you are updating your entry, please do so in a reply or make an edit to your original post rather than starting a new thread
  
• Photo must be between 300x300 and 1280x1024 pixels, and smaller than 1Mb

How much can a photo be edited? I'm a Pentax user, but my specialty is photomanipulation.

As much as you want, just make sure whatever you submit still has general appeal

Was this rule recently added?

No, for the monthly contest, which this is, it's always been that with Pentax or Ricoh camera.

When does it close?

[photolady95]

On the last day of June, otherwise it would be in the next months contest and wouldn't be the same theme.

[unixrevolution]

Was this rule recently added?

Yes and no.

Pentaxforums' monthly contents have always been Pentax-only....until the merger with Ricoh, at which point Ricoh cameras were added.

I do also think they allow Samsung DSLRs of the GX10/GX20 type, as those are actually rebranded Pentaxes.

I raised this earlier, again, I feel it should be open for both, either Pentax lens or Pentax camera user. As long Pentax equipment is used - they should be allowed.

Right now the monthly contests are still limited to Pentax/Ricoh bodies.

This contest is now closed to submissions.

For the next two weeks, you will be able to nominate finalists via this page:

(this is a new procedure for this and all future contests)

Good luck!
