The current Shoot-In mandate challenge is...

drum roll please

Creative OOF

Part of your photo should be in sharp-focus; one or more
elements in the photo should be creatively-blurred.

Due: August 28, 2005

The rulz can be found at http://www.aliasimages.com/si/rulz.html

Do you mean DOF?

No...OOF (Out Of Focus)

of course he does!

oh OK...

wot a doofus!

That you are. ;-)


Surely I am, I am...

Time to say DOH!!!! *

Of course, using DOF gives you areas OOF, n'est ce pas?

mais qui, mais qui!

quel blag!!


Hehe. No big deal...just submit a shot and everyone's happy. ;-)



OK how come there are no photos posted? Do we have to wait till the end of the
2 weeks to see any pics?

I want to see some pics... OOPS...


















Out Of Patience, ****.

Does a portrait with OOF background count? I have a very nice shot of
my cat that would qualify in that case (although the blurred
background is of an even colour and texture).

You should shoot something new that complies with the mandate. Merely
uploading an image that you have already made is against the spirit of
the SI, which is all about shooting to a specific brief within the
time allowed.

Of course there is one contributor to the SI who almost always
supplies a shot from his increasingly dull archive of incompetent
snapshots. However, the rules ("rulz") were never supposed to apply
to Alan Browne, only to everyone else.

As do I -- but I think that the rules include it being shot
*during* the challenge period, and you lose points with pre-existing
photos. Otherwise, I might actually submit that shot. :-)

Enjoy,

Sure, but the idea is to go out and shoot for the challenge if
possible...but if you can't, archive shots are allowed.

I'll add...unless there has been a change in the original rules. Al?

I know that. The shot in question is very recent though, so I thought
it couldn't hurt to ask.

Well, I have two weeks, so I might see if a nice opportunity presents
itself for a better shot.

People have done it in the past, but have been prosecuted to the full
extent of the law. Which in this case is nothing more than a soft poke
in the ribs when you are asleep.
