It is time to apply for submitting a RAW file for the upcoming weeks of Editing challenges.

The deadline for the alphabetical list is midnight pst Wednesday the edit>23d<edit of July. Applications made after that time will be added as first come, first served. I will compile a list and warn the first submitter by PM on Thursday, and then we start the challenges.

 

Here are the rules:

 

The challenge is weekly, a new thread with a new raw (preferably) or jpg fine file for each week.

Cutoff time for submissions is midnight between sunday and monday pst (UTC-8).

This is a round-robin challenge, the order of submitting the week’s raw file is based on an alphabetical list of applicants’ user names. If the next submitter on the list is unable to post at his/her turn he/she may ask the thread master to be moved down the list no later than friday morning. Late applications will be added at the bottom of the list.
We will revise this when every applicant has had a go, and perhaps change this model.

The submitter for the week must make the file along with any specific text for the post available to the thread master during the weekend preceding the challenge week. The thread master will then copy the file to a Dropbox location for the challenge and make the starting post for the week.

Images provided, as well as the images resulting from the challenge remain the sole property of the photographer who took them. Those participating in the editing challenge may not use or display the photo outside the challenge thread.

The owner of the photo declares a winner after the challenge is over.

As this challenge is a tool for learning and inspiration, multiple entries are not only ok, but encouraged if a participant gets a new idea for how to present or interpret the photo, including artistic interpretations.

Participants must share how they have achieved their take on the photo.

Participants are explicitly not limited as to what software is used for the challenge.

 

 

This block of rules will be included in the first post every week.

 

Welcome!

I'll give it a go!  Not sure there is much editing to be done on some of my sports shots, but I'll try and find interesting shots for submission...note mine will probably be JPEG...

[Merco_61]

We have now passed the deadline for the alphabetical list.

 

I have sent a PM to Afterimage who is first out.

Just so I am clear on the rules, once we get a PM from you, we open a new thread and upload the unedited RAW file.   Correct?

[Merco_61]

Not quite:

 

The submitter for the week must make the file along with any specific text for the post available to the thread master during the weekend preceding the challenge week. The thread master will then copy the file to a Dropbox location for the challenge and make the starting post for the week.

[Thumper]

Gotcha.   Thanks for the clarification.  

 

I guess if I would read a little more thoroughly that I would have seen that above.

Since I'm late in noticing this thread I'll just go to the end of the line which is where I'd be anyhow given my userID here.,..
