I know that many here hate Pentax Forums, so this may only be of interest to those who are members and might wish to give a PDML-er a boost. The prize is a K-3, which I would sure try to make good use of.
This is a weird contest (the rules have seemed to change as we have gone along). 1st: It isn't really a photo contest. Your initially entered photo only is used for round 1. Then, those who advanced had to take a NEW PHOTO (during the Round 2 contest period) for Round 2. You couldn't use a previously taken photo and your initial Round 1 photo doesn't really help you much anymore. This wasn't clear (at all) until the Round 2 rules were announced. Initially it said that 64 people were to advance out of Round 1 and then it was expanded to 128. The top 32 vote getters will advance to the 3rd and final round. No idea what the rules for that would be. Odds are it will call for yet another new image to be produced - and if it does I'm probably screwed. If I get to use ANY image, I plan to use the #1 supercell image that was the concensus here in my opinion thread the other day, in round 3, and I may have a chance. But first, I have to get out of Round 2. My Round 2 entry is #50.

Statistically, you give the most help to a single photo if you vote for only that one. (This was the image that got me out of Round 1: http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/174-pentax-k-3-photo-contest/259638-black-white-lone-cottonwood-tornado-alley.html) There are a lot of great images in Round 2, and I will consider myself very fortunate if I get to advance to the final Round 3. -- Photographers must learn not to be ashamed to have their photographs look like photographs. ~ Alfred Stieglitz -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
