MavericksMission Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Any of you guys entering this year? :) I didn't enter last year, but a couple of friends and I are going to give it another crack this year. The open brief was revealed today and you can enter from August 23rd. Photo 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Oooh what a great open brief, I think August might be the windy month this year too, I was just saying that to a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) it's not cut off, it's when it opens up to allow submissions so you've still got time. I'm thinking of entering one of these pics that I took earlier this year. Which one do you prefer? I know they're not exactly wind, but I'm sure the dogs had a 55 kph wind in their face when they were running that fast, and I think they really just mean they want the brief to convey movement. 5F6A0321dpptcr by kirislin, on Flickr 5F6A0312dpptcr by kirislin, on Flickr IMG_1588dpptc by kirislin, on Flickr IMG_8199dppt cr by kirislin, on Flickr IMG_5632dppc by kirislin, on Flickr IMG_5630dpptc by kirislin, on Flickr Edited August 22, 2012 by Kirislin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huga Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 The fifth one is my favourite too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Having read the brief I think those photos fit perfectly Kirislin. I personally think the fifth one is the best fit though as you can really see the wind pushing the ears back. :) It's definitely windy today but I'm feeling absolutely buggered and not up to going out doing photographs so I've decided to take a leaf out of your book and go through some old photos and see what I can come up with. You're probably right, but I'm guessing right as you were replying I just decided to go with the first one, it's in. I think as long as you enter something you'll get a box. My last years photo wasn't very good at all but they still sent me a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I've just had email confirmation that a box has been reserved for me. :D they start sending them out early Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 the prizes dont seem as spectacular this year, I thought there were more cameras to give away and overseas trips last year. Not that I will be winning anything :laugh: but there just doesn't seem to be as much on offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Are the briefs usually hard? I wouldn't mind having a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Are the briefs usually hard? I wouldn't mind having a go. give it a go, the wind one should be easy for you since you take your gang out in the open alot. If you enter they'll send you the box, it's not compulsory to enter anymore briefs and I dont think I have, but it's fun playing around, even if you dont enter. becandcharch had one of her photos used in their advertising campaign, it was even on TV. I dont recall if they actually paid her money but she got a speedlite and something else I think. You just never know what could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Oh I remember Charch being on the add. I will go through my beach shots from today there might be something I could use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was funny, they gave him a different name and a bloke did the voice over with a made up story, but we were all so excited when the ad would come on. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 My box arrived today. I've been looking at the briefs, spaghetti is supposed to be portraiture, but alot of people dont seem to realise. I love the tiny people, I wonder if everyone gets the same ones, I've got a little man waving and a blonde lady with what might be a platter, she's so tiny I cant make it out.

tlc Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I was going to write can't wait to see what you come up with but then looked one post higher and I already said it! I cant imagine what you can do with spaghetti and portraiture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
