Topic: Green

My bad. I'm slippin, I know. Since last month we did blue, which is for sky, I think it is only proper we do green for grass; the opposite of blue (red, yes I know). So go flower hunting, field shooting or near some radioactive goo to catch something green. Okinawa in September, this shouldn't be hard. Hope to have as many entries as last time! Thanks and happy shooting!!!!

REMINDER:

Submit up to two photos!
If you win, you have the option of choosing the following, following month's theme
Also if you win, you might get your photo featured in the printed Japan Update!! & win a nice prize provided by Japan Update! (This is enough for me to want to win)
The photo(s) must be taken during the month of the assignment. ( ie: this topic is for the month of September )
The assignment will be open for the entire month. The first week of the following month will be the voting period.
Voters will vote (by posting) for (3) three photos in the order that they think should be placed. ( ie: If a voter post 4, 6, 8. The voter believes #4 should be first place, #6 should be second place and #8 to be third place )
Anyone can vote and you can vote for yourself too.
Need a place to upload photos? Try the following ( I'd watermark them first ):

Actually it was May and July, but you need to email dk about that. Only he can set that up with the Print21 boss and stuff.

So as not to confuse the winners of the June contest, Courtney won the July photo contest, not the June contest.

WTF is "Blue" & "Green"? I'm color blind. How about a "Meat" or "Beer" category.

LOL :D THAT would be "brown" and shades thereof.
"Green" is the color of grass. You know grass, don't you? :scratchchin:

Man...I wish I had a nice camera and an ND filter. I'm still stuck with my Powershot A710. At least CHDK makes it a little better.

I don't own a nice camera, filter is far away. I took those photos by Pentax X70 (http://www.pentaximaging.com/digital-camera/X70/)

Oh yeah, the photo contest announcement in the paper still says July or something. That should probably get fixed too.

I changed it a few days ago. I'll change it again when the October one starts. :D
