MA 35, "Candid". This is more exciting to me than a Kodak Picture of the Day as I've tried many times before and never made it. The competition is fierce as you can imagine (if the darn thing ended on it's original deadline, I think I could have won, but FM monthly assignments have a way of getting extended over and over and then still closing late.)
If not now, when?

    The way these things go, it will probably be November before the voting closes, so it's still early days.

    Added the picture to the initial post of this thread. The FM contest thread is here, but you'll need to register with FredMiranda to be able to see it. In my experience, there is are no disadvantages to registering there, and the level of photographs posted is very high, so it's a pleasure to browse.

    Congrats. I started hanging out there in 2003 and learned more about photography in the first few months than the previous decade. Very high quality photographers there & the assignments are very tough competition.
