Hi Everyone,
Dgrin challenge 80 is here. It will run from Monday December 11th at 12:00:01 a.m. NYC time, through Tuesday, December 26th at Noon NYC time. ***Yes, TUESDAY! The guest judge for the challenge will be the winner of challenge 79 (Waiting), as determined by the voters.

As always, please take some time to comment and critique so all participants will get the most out of the Challenge. Please comment as often as you can.

The theme for Challenge 80 is: Machinery

Quite a few people have suggested something like this in the challenge suggestions thread, so let's do it! Machines, machinery, heavy machines, incredible machines... big, small. Whatever, surprise us, do something unique and new!

Don't forget about the end of the year special big prize... that means don't be shy, enter a shot and vote too!

Good luck to you all and, as usual, Dgrin Photo Challenge rules apply. Please read them here and remember that shots must be fresh, as in, shot during the challenge period. Don't forget to include the date shot or a link to your smugmug exif info.

*NEW FOLKS: Listen up... I've just closed challenge 79 and noticed there were at least two of you who "posted" a challenge photo, but not to the challenge thread! To clarify, all entries are to be posted in this thread, right here. No comments here, just your final entry + exif/date.


~DoctorIt


***Challenge MACHINERY will close to entries on Tuesday, December 26th at 12 Noon NYC time***

Please note that entries received after the challenge period ends are ineligible and will be deleted without notice.
