The rules are as follows:

  • Entries will accepted until 11:59pm (GMT) December 5th.
  • Each competition's voting will last for one week. The winner of that round will choose the next theme.
  • All entries must have been taken within the last 6 months and preferably after the announcement of the theme.
  • Entries must be posted as a thumbnail no larger than 700px on the longest edge. Full sized images may be as larger as you'd like.*
  • You must submit only your own photographs, do not post anyone else's work.
  • Only one photograph per person, marked with Final Entry. You can change your entry, but must remove your current entry first and clearly state that you have posted a new entry.
  • You must not vote for your own photograph when the Poll is up. Only vote for a photograph taken by another entrant.
  • The photograph must be submitted with the following information: Subject, Date and Camera used and, if you'd like, the major camera settings - shutter speed, ISO, etc.
*While full sized images may be as larger as you'd like, you should try to limit them to approximately 1200px to enable viewing the entire image without scrolling. It's much easier to see the full effect of the shot when you can view it all at once and not have to pan.

Current theme, chosen by Week #11 winner Azuremen:
Isolation or a that sense of being alone. You know, those shots where people/things just seem to stand alone in the world.
Good luck, everyone!

I'd just like to say thank you to TB for getting this contest up and running. As you can see I'm now taking over the running of it as he's found himself too busy to run it how he'd initially wanted to.

And a big THANK YOU! for agreeing to take it over! :cheers:
 
Oh nice, I have a recent shot that fits this theme. :D Will post it up later when I can resize it properly. 👍
 
Interesting you say that actually, that was the alternate theme Cody sent in :lol: thought I'd go with this though as some people prefer to remain anonymous.

Indeed. I felt they were themes that could both have a bit of overlap.

Many Thanks to you, too, TB, for stepping in and getting this going!

Missed the last two due to various snags, but hoping to find photons in isolation, soon.

Glad that Solar has picked up the reins - I'm sure he'll do a fine job. 👍
(Don't lend him the real Banhammer, though, just the inflatable one will do.)
 
Well this old house is pretty isolated and lonely looking...

Just took this one today. iPhone, because I didn't have my DSLR with me. And as they say, the best camera is the one you have on you.

Final Entry





Please click for bigger as I don't like the colours photobucket gives me and the bigger one is pulled from my tumblr. 👍 Edit: Although with that, they seemed to have vastly improved recently.

Very good entries all of you, but that last one is brilliant, Boff.
 
I shall be closing the competiton up around 9pm gmt so that gives you all just over four hours to get those entries in!
 
So I guess this can fit the theme.

edit: So I changed my entry cause I really really like this picture of mine but if it doesn't fit the theme let me know and I have something else that should work. Could use a bit of a crop but it'll have to do.

Casey that works in my mind - strong sense of isolation in that shot.
