Weekly Challenge 176 - Night streetshots
Posted By: Iris, 08-14-2011, 11:40 PM

The theme is "Night streetshots" -- I would like to see pictures of people in the street, after the sun went down (so evening- or nightshots)!

Have fun!!

By the rules, this runs for a week, so let's say the entries should be posted by Monday, August 22 (midnight, your time zone).

The fine print....
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread, and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus a day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera will do.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

Here are some examples to get the ball rolling:

Changed my mind after reading the criteria :-) You wanted people. We lucked into this Carnival at Playa Del Carmen, Mexico a few years back. We had just come back from our Scuba Diving certification 4 open water dives and we were feeling great. A couple of hours later this paradae broke out. It was a great time.
Reading the rules, what a concept!

That depends on the judge, and in this case it will be me

I close this one, and hope to get the results up tomorrow evening.
