?

Give one to me, so I can have two.

Yuval · 04-08-2014, 04:39 AM

To where should the photo be submitted ?

VoiceOfReason · 04-08-2014, 06:19 AM

I will enter, because I want to experience the Curse of hociR!

Yeah nice. Please make a rule for minimum and maximum size off images to enter in the competition. Like a minimum off 1000 pixels or so on the short side or something. My screen is 2560x1440 pixels, so that is a nice maximumsize and for minimum fitting in the 1920x1080 pixels screens (either wich size off the image is fitting, so between 720x1080 and 960x1440 for a standing image).

Too bad one is not skilled enough to have a shot at this.
A K-3 had been a great upgrade from my canon 600d in the APS-C class.

trannguyenhue · 04-08-2014, 07:14 AM

Great! I will try!

It sounds like you might be getting in your own way! I've thought the same thing about myself. However, I decided to start entering contests anyway. It's a simple formula, really...just post YOUR best shot. The one photo you are most proud of is good enough to enter. So, get out and shoot, and don't forget to enter.

Well, I know for sure I suck, but I'm gonna enter too. Give it a shot...

Edchristenson · 04-08-2014, 09:33 AM

I'll keep an eye out for it...

I had to sell my camera set last year so now I only have my samsung s4's camera

Can I submit images from a mobile phone too? :|

Bman · 04-08-2014, 09:43 AM

If someone can win an international photo contest, they probably don't need a brand new K-3.

Ogion · 04-08-2014, 09:54 AM

It is fantastic!!!! ........

Absolutely, though for round 2 you may want to borrow a friend's camera as we will require a 1000px image.

maleek · 04-08-2014, 10:23 AM

Nice one. Will be on the lookout for the contest.

Amante · 04-08-2014, 10:24 AM

Wow, now something to chew on

Thanks for the invite...
