Welcome to Round #116 of the Dgrin Sharp Shooters Challenges.

This challenge is for all dgrin members.

It will run from Monday, November 12, 2012 8:00pm PST time (GMT -8) on through Monday, November 26, 2012 8:00pm PST time (GMT -8).

The theme this round for your interpretation will be: The Dark Side of Photography

Since we had explored the high key in challenge 105, I thought it time to explore the dark side of photography known as "Low Key". All images must be considered low key. In low key, there is minimal light, usually from one source.

For those who do not know what low key is:
http://www.lightstalking.com/low-key-photography has a great description.

Here are a few of my own as examples:

Titles should not be more than 4 words, keep 'em short!

There are no editing restrictions this round!


Your Judge:
1 round 72 Hour Public Vote.

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!

RULES.

Please note that there has been a rules wording change, so be sure you have re- read the rules!
