Welcome to the Photography Forum Contest for November 2002. This month's theme is The Unusual Point Of View. This contest is now closed to any further entries...Voting is now in progress!! Many people often get stuck in the usual centered, straight on shot. This month your challenge is to photograph your subject in a different way. Often by finding an unusual camera position and view point, you can turn ordinary subjects into intriguing images. Basically, this is a wide open challenge. So let your imaginations run wild. If it helps you can pretend you are a bug, bird, cat, dog, child...whatever it takes to see things *differently* for just a moment. Entries will be accepted until midnight November 30, 2002 GMT. Voting will begin on December 2nd, 2002. Please check before the voting begins to make sure your entry has been approved and is posted. For Challenge Series Rules and Guide lines, please read below. If there are any questions please feel free to post them in the Photography Forum, and either Michelle A. or starshuffler will do their best to answer them. Good luck to everyone, and have fun!
