Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenge #17

Welcome to Round #17 of the Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenges. This challenge is open to any Dgrin member. It will run from Monday, January 12, 08:00am, EST time (GMT -5) to Monday, January 26, 08:00am, EST time (GMT -5).

The topic ready for your interpretation: Hair
Short, long, curly, straight, frizzy, glossy, human, animal or simply giving the appearance of...

Whatever you do with this one, HAIR should be the main message. Get it lit well, show texture, be creative and above all…have fun!
Your Judges:
dlplumer (Winner of DSS Round #15)
JAG (Guest Judge)

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your entry is to be submitted directly into a Smugmug gallery. It's pretty simple, just go to the gallery link below, and follow the upload instructions at the top of the page: Remember, the basics stay the same: 1 entry per person, and the photo must be fresh, taken during this contest period. Do not use a minimal save method (such as "save for web"), and your exif will be embedded in your image, no worries!

To avoid disqualification, read, in full, the Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenge Rules, there have been some slight modifications.<!-- / message --><!-- sig --><!-- / message --><!-- sig --><!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

    I still have a decent head of hair (knocks on wood) but I was thinking the same thing. Actually gave me one possible idea to work with.

    Question....
    Forgive me if this has been mentioned before or covered but....

    Is the way I have linked to all the extra EXIF's that make up my image in the challenge gallery, acceptable?

    If it is unnecessary then I will remove it, but I was under the impression we needed to link to all parts and all EXIF that make up our final entry.

    Thank you!
