[SI] Date change for "Street Photography" : now January 6th, 2013.
 

Apologies, but I'll be very out of pocket during Christmas week,
without any on-line access. I need to delay the current mandate for a
week. I hope this doesn't have any negative effects on your shooting
schedules.

More into:

======================================

Time to stretch our skills and hit the streets! The new mandate,
"Street Photography," can provide big challenges, but the results can
be well worth it. If you aren't clear on what constitutes Street
Photography, well, visit this site for starters:

http://www.street-photographers.com/

Some good advice here, as well:

http://photo.net/learn/street/intro

Please not the following rules for this mandate:

No excessive post processing: what this means is that street shooting
is supposed to reflect reality, so excessive processing, like adding
or removing elements, using Photoshop filters to excess (adding grain
is OK, solarizing is not), and adding effects like starbursts are not
acceptable. Adjusting for exposure, color contrast, B&W conversions,
and adding grain to simulate old-style street shots is OK. I believe
there's enough lattitute in this mandate to offer sufficient
opportunities without having to resort to "painting" an image. This
mandate is designed to test your photographic skills, not your
Photoshop skills.

Due: December 30th, 2012
Start Date: November 22nd, 2012

I wish...

I'll be in a secure facility where they allow nothing. No cell phones,
nothing. I'll be basking by the warm glow of servers and large network
gear.

However, the evenings will be spent in a nice hotel with, I assume, a
fully functional bar. And single malt is always an excellent choice.

As is cognac, whiskey, bourbon...

Oh!

....and perhaps, complimentary WiFi.

rifles who looked at me with menace when I left the Tempest room without
an escort... not even phone lines in there).

Sure seems like it. But, as you know, some IT stuff can only be done
during shutdowns. Oh, well. The money is good. Double time!

Yeah, for my iPhone. No big deal, really. Just another job.
