1st ANNUAL PHOTO OF THE YEAR CONTEST - PART I

[Camshaft Ramrod]

15, 12, 10, and 1 are good.

I'm not feelin all the photoshoped pics with the blacked out backgrounds though.
I want to vote for 10, but my deep hatred for oscars is preventing me.......
Ehh I'll vote for 10. It's A+ photo taking right there.....too bad it's wasted on Oscars....
I like the usage of space, the focusing and the positioning of the O's.

Be careful. It is possible to get a black background WITHOUT photoshop. It's easily done with cmera settings and lighting technique. I know, I do it all the time.

They are all Excellent pictures, so I decided to add personal, subjective criteria, too difficult otherwise.

Voted #1 because it seems to show personality. Lefty seems like “Scooby-Doo,” all enthusiasm and eagerness while his friend, “Righty” looks on with doubt, as though he’s been down that road before and did not have stellar results.

Hey, I just got through reading “Alex and Me” about the parrot who was at the university and was trained with over 100 words/labels. I'm in an anthropomorphizing mood.

^ Agreed ^

While some of the pics were prior to the rule change, one can also place the pics in photoshop and adjust them to see just which ones are natural and which ones are edited.

I voted for 12. Such an insane unheard of combo straight out of a Disney movie!
