Hattifnatt (Cosmin) is traveling (hopefully taking some great photos for us to enjoy) and unable to host so I am filling in.
It's always hard to come up with a.challenge subject. I belong to a couple interesting Flickr groups that have inspired this challenge, Urban Decay, and Rural Decay. We have forum members that live in the biggest cities and some that live in very remote areas, so we will go with both. So show us your rust, your corrosion, your weathered wood, your peeling paint, your crumbling mortar, whatever it takes.to show neglected, damaged, or abandoned structures, machines, you name it..--The Challenge will close on Friday August 18 at midnight my time.
The fine print:
Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week.
Rules
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 one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax/Ricoh (DSLR) camera can be used.
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
