Challenge Series Details... The Photography Forum Monthly Challenge is open to all Renderosity members. There are two levels of entries... Zone I, and Zone II. Zone I is for advanced intermediate, expert and professional photographers. People who post to this level are usually experienced photographers. They are shooting with prosumer, or better cameras, and generally have a solid understanding and working knowledge of the basics of photography. Zone II is for beginning and intermediate photographers. This can be defined as still learning the basic technical aspects of making good exposures, and/or learning the basic concepts of composition. Their equipment can run the full range of the spectrum from professional gear to point-and-shoot cameras. If you would like to have your work critiqued by your peers before entering, start your own thread in the Photography Forum any time during the month and ask. There are many other artists here who are glad to help. Winners will be decided by a Renderosity community vote. Voting will take place for two days after the entry period closes (Midnight GMT on the last day of the month). Members may vote for one winner in each category, and the results will be posted two days after the voting ends. *PLEASE NOTE* Any photograph posted in the Challenge Series must conform to the Renderosity Terms of Service.
