Black and White Photo Contest

The Lady Of Cusco (70mm, 1/200 sec at f/9.0)

It’s contest time folks.  November’s contest is going to be all about black and white photography.  I happen to love a good B&W photograph and  I’m really looking forward to this month’s contest.  I’m sure I’m going to see some incredible work, much like I did with  September’s contest.   The contest is simple, all you need to do is submit your best black and white portrait, landscape, or object/abstract to my Facebook Fan site.  Below are the steps and the rules…..

The steps are simple.

1. Become a fan of Batdorff Photography on Facebook.  Click on this link HERE.
2. Go to the Wall tab.  Type in your name in the box that reads “Write something” and directly under that box click on attach photo and upload your favorite contest photo.
3. Make sure to label  your entry with a category. Use either landscape, portrait or object/abstract.  (giving your image a title is always nice touch too)
4. Make sure to comment on other people’s photos…but remember, this is for fun!

The rules never change….here they are for those of you who might have forgotten or are new to this:

1. Don’t post photos you did not take because it’s just not cool, and potentially illegal.
2. Multiple entries are allowed. The same photo can NOT be used in more than one category.
3. International entries are welcomed!
4. Entries must be uploaded by November 8th.
5. All entries need a category label.
6. The winning entries will be announced on November 16th!
7. All winning entries will be posted on my blog with some honorable mentions.  Remember to comment on those that you like, as I do take that into consideration!
8. Winners must contact me via the blog in order to claim their prize.

The prizes rock:

• Best B&W Landscape ($50.00 gift certificate)
• Best B&W Portrait  ($50.00 gift certificate)
• Best B&W Object/Abstract ($50.00 gift certificate)
• My favorite honorable mention will get one year subscription to Black and White magazine.

The $50.00 gift certificate is to B&H Photo.

In addition to the prize, you’ll get some props when I post your award winning photo on my blog site.

I’ll plan on announcing the winners  November 16, on my blog.

If you have questions regarding the contest please leave a comment on today’s blog.

One last thing,  it’s my hope to make this contest larger than the last, so I need your help.  If you could spread the word, Re-tweet  if you use  Twitter , Facebook  fans please share the post on your Wall or suggest my page to your friends, and for the rest of you simply suggest my blog to your friends.

I wish everyone the best and remember to have fun!
