"Light from a Low Sun"
... Entry is now closed, sorry.
I'm awarding three prizes of $200 each for what I judge to be the most interesting or pleasing photographs sent to me before the end (globally) of Sunday 15 July 2012.
- Each author may send one (1) picture.
- The picture may not previously have won prizes or have been published in a professional publication, on- or offline.
- The author's name must be in the file name. (Example: joe-blow-13.jpg)
- No text added to the picture, please.
- Shortest edge at least 1200 pixels, longest edge less than 3000 pixels.
- JPG format, maximum file size: 2 megabytes.
- Photos may be color or B/W.
- Judging is entirely subjective!
I acquire the rights to publish for free any entry here. Entrants keep all other rights.
I plan that in the last half of July, I will post several of the best entries, and the winners. I require a paypal address to pay to.
Send entries to my Gmail address, which is eolake. Or use the address here.
(I will give an email confirmation when I get your entry.)
I hope I will get at least as many photos looking at what the sun shines at when low in the sky as I get photos of sunsets and sunrises! :-) (Those are always pretty, but it's hard to do fresh work with them.)

(Note: this contest does not have anything to do with my other site Domai.com, and is not intended for nudes.)

Oooh, a challenge. I like a challenge.
Now I need inspiration. I love shooting at the end of the day, nice low light, warmer colors and enhanced texture. There are places I particularly like to shoot, but sometimes that evening fog denies us the crisp edges. I hope I get a sunset shoot in before the 15, otherwise I may have to pull an old favorite out of storage, or maybe re-examine some taken recently and hurriedly when the sun melted into the ocean (don't worry I was looking the other way).
No nudes? Damn. I was going to do a beautiful shot of Mt. Cockmore at sunset.
I think this is gonna be a very good contest, I already have nice pictures coming in.
Poor it on, guys.
Poor it on? Okay...
I'll have to send a drawing, since I'm too poor to own a camera.
I think I need to go to the hospital. I think my sides just split.
I knew I was hilarious, but I didn't think I would endanger the public health...
Sorry, Ted.
Got some cool shots this weekend, but they were all between 10am and 6 pm. No low sun that time, and for a chunk, no sun, just fog.
Well, there has to be some low sunlight.
Is it okay to retouch/fix a photo before submitting it?
Sure, anything you'd normally do to optimize a photo.
Dang, one sunset left, and I can't get out with a camera today.
I'm not going to submit this one. It's a 4x6 print and low res scan, needs some tidy up, but here for some fun and inspiration.
