Crash

I would totally suggest reading the below post before you even THINK about reading this one.

So this picture of Eddie is what I would have submitted to the contest had I not been too late. The picture, at least to me... it speaks. I have no idea why, or anything, it just seems to portray an emotion. By just looking at it, I can almost feel the impact of the crash (had it not been staged), and that's why I love it.

I barely edited this picture, too. All I did was put a fog masque over it, which made it seems a little less bright and a little darker, which is what I had in mind for the picture.

Flickr & Contest Information

No new pictures today, although with only days left for the Nikon contest, I should probably get a move on. Anyway, I made a Flickr just now. Flickr is basically Yahoo's version of DeviantART, and I'll be uploading my pictures there as well. I'll put a link to my profile in the Links bar.

About the Nikon Camera contest, I have a lot of great ideas in mind, and I've been waiting for the right day to do it. So right after I hit "Publish Post," I'm going to go outside and get a move on, that way tomorrow I can edit them and submit them. I don't want to spoil the 'surprise' element by telling you some of my ideas, but they are sort of emotional kinds of things, and I'm trying to portray a ton of different emotions through the pictures.

On June 26, the contest ends, and I'll post the pictures that I've submitted (and the ones I haven't) on here for you to see before the judging begins.

Apparently, I read the contest information wrong, so when I went to go submit my picture today, it told me that submittions are over and that the voting would start on the 25th of June.
