Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenge #35

Welcome to Round #35 of the Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenges. This challenge is open to any Dgrin member. It will run from Monday, October 5, 08:00am, EDT time (GMT -4) to Monday, October 19, 08:00am, EDT time (GMT -4).

The topic ready for your interpretation: Blue

Unhappy? Unyellow? Whatever your interpretation, make us see blue!

Your Judges:
sbarge (Winner of Round 32)
annnna8888 (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.

    This cannot be my entry, because I took it yesterday. But when I edited it last night, and uploaded it to my site, I thought to myself, "too bad we don't have the theme 'blue'."

    Then this morning, I see the new theme.

    Too funny. Such a coincidence.

    Living in the Atlantic, I'm looking forward to this one.

    I'm going to hold my breathe for as long as I can and see if I can snap a SP before I pass out. Hopefully I will have turn blue by then. :D

    I was having a hard time coming up with anything. I am down at my parents, it is a beautiful day, and surprisingly, there is a ton of blue things laying around the farm. wings.gif So, once I get back home, I can't wait to put up what I have. If I don't come up with something here, then I might be in trouble!

    Numbers back up! What was the largest number of submissions - was it Dusk/Dawn (which I think was 90-something) or was there another one which was more than that?

    Great "blue" non entry shot Kerry. I am guessing it is another SP, just like your sexy luscious looking avatar, which I see you went back to.iloveyou.gif

    Six DQs this round. :cry

    mblonde - Taken before challenge start date
    rickbern - Taken before challenge start date
    Oldgroaner - No EXIF
    quark - Frames (your file may not have had the frame in it, but triptychs should be separated by no more than a 1pt space or line)
    dlscott56 - No EXIF

    Plus this image for having no DGrin username in the caption: 684151519_EdYPn-Th.jpg

    I'll say again, I can't tell who people are on DGrin from a Smugmug or any other external web site. ne_nau.gif

    I'd like to say I've grown out of dressing up my cats, but I still fall victim to the tortuous activity every so often, though nothing involving actual outfits I'm glad to say. :D And I know better than to place anything near them that I'd like to survive the encounter.

    Ooopps, I guess I was so busy making sure I put the exifs I forgot my name.
    I will blame it on sleep deprivation was up at 2 in the morning Saturday for my first photo blind shoot of the season. Just been so challenged for time lately. Has been hurting my participation.
