Need Help With Contest
Hello, my name is Toni and I am from New Bern, NC. I entered a photo
contest with Hewlett-Packard and Snapfish. I recently found out that I made it in the finals. I am wanting to pursue a career in photography and winning this contest would be a great opportunity for me. I hope you will take the time to vote for my picture. Any feedback about the photo would also be appreciated. I would like some opinions about the photo to help improve my photography. I used a Canon PowerShot S40, which I hope to upgrade, if I win. Thank you for your support and for helping a stranger. http://www.snapfish.com/viewsinglevo...a=95171618(cut and paste) The main contest page is: http://www.snapfish.com/viewentries/...ily+Ever+After My photo is black and white with feet. Photo name: This little piggy... You do not have to sign up or sign in. There is a pop-up window with a security code that needs to be entered. I guess this is to prevent cheating. If you use a pop-up blocker, you will not be able to vote, but you will still be able to see the photo. Thanks again for taking the time to vote. If I have offended anyone, or if this is not an appropriate post, please accept my sincere apology. My intent is just to ask a favor. |

I do suggest you browse the first 1000 photos in "top photographers" of photo.net to get an idea of what very good amateurs and pros are producing. http://www.photo.net/gallery/photocritique/filter Cheers, Alan I judged it compared to the other entries - that made it stand out. On it's own, as another poster said, the photo isn't "that" orginal. But it is very well done and far superior to the other entries which are all the equivalent of home movies, as I see them. So, I did vote for it! I have a request: how exactly did you do it? I'd like to learn. Thanks. If you want to email directly: louise250 at nyc dot rr dot com Louise |

I was surprised by the dismally low average score most of the entries had, not that they weren't earned. I didn't bother to see if there was an explanation for how the scores were tabulated, but I hope each person's score is a function only of votes for their own pictures. |
