January 2010's Photography Themes: "Contrast" and "Texture"
Please be sure to read the rules before posting your contributions! Muchos gracias folks.
Theme #1: "Contrast"
Theme #2: "Texture"
Rules:
Ending Date: January 31st
This isn't a competition, just a themed assignment for those who wish to participate. The only reason there is a due date is to keep the thread from going on and on. Feel free to PM me with options for other themes.
Constructive Criticism
The point of limiting criticism to Constructive Criticism to to keep people from just going "wow, your photo sucks" without offering a means for improvement. You could go "The composition just isn't doing it for me, maybe try moving the subjects face to the left a few inches." It would also nice and helps people receive CC better if you balance a negative with a positive such as "Well the lighting is nice, but the composition just isn't doing it for me, maybe try moving the subjects face to the left a few inches." or "I like the composition overall, but the busy background distracts me from the subject's face.'
Theme #1: "Contrast"
Theme #2: "Texture"
Rules:
- Photo must be taken within the given month or on/after the date of this post. This is because the purpose of the assignments is to get people out and about taking new pictures, not digging through previous shots.

- Please only submit ONE photo per assignment
- If possible please post all the photo info such as lens, f/ stop, shutter speed, etc.
- All photos are open to C&C unless otherwise noted by poster
