Hello again, fellow BP Contest Enthusiasts! The 15th has rolled around once again, so we can huddle together to await the verdict of The Judges!
Dust off the hambone chant, the cocktail shakers, and of course, the variety of chocolate that we rely upon... whatever it takes to get through the waiting, wondering and wishing, until the September Finalists & Winners are published later this month! All are welcome here!
One gentle reminder: Please refrain from posting half a dozen of your past entries; ideally, this thread is about sharing that one, really special, excellent, meaningful, or otherwise favorite hopeful image of yours! Best of luck, to all Contestants!
2) If you have NOT YET entered an image into the Contest today, you can use the "Photo ID" to pull a pre-existing image from your Member Center into this thread (avoiding a duplicate image upload.) Obtain the particular Photo ID# from your Member Center. Come to this thread, click Respond, enter the text of your reply, then choose "1" from the images-to-attach drop-down. Click Submit, and on the next screen populate the "Photo ID" box at the far right. No need to fill in any of the other fields on that screen.
3) If you HAVE ALREADY made a Contest entry today, before joining this thread, you can't use the Photo ID method, today. You can either wait until tomorrow to reply here (before your new Contest entry!) or, upload a new copy of the particular image (from your PC) to include in this thread now. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery.
4) If you're uploading a duplicate in Step 3, you may wish to title it as "Sept Fav for Forum" so that it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later on... Adding "Original displayed in my Gallery" to the text description of the duplicate can help direct viewers who want to comment on your image, to seek the original image in your gallery instead.
5) Likewise, if you see a photo in this thread and want to comment on it, try to tell if it is a duplicate upload first. (Are there any older-dated comments already on it? Does it say "Original displayed in my Gallery"?) As a courtesy, try to find the original image in that person's gallery, and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate here---that way, if they delete the duplicate a month from now, they don't wipe out any comment history that should really belong with the original entry.
6) Finally, make a record of all your current-month Contest Entries, at each month-end! On the last night of the month, BP resets the "Current Entries" page in your Member Center, to make way for your entries in the new month. Keeping a record of monthly entries makes it easier to determine your favorite image later, when we start this thread next month!
Glad it's mid month and back to being able to eat chocolate and drink alchol with an excuse!
I had almost an entire month of resubmits, and due to the fact that I was at the BP Summit at the end of the month, I wasn't able to capture which shots I had uploaded last month, so no post for me in this thread.
It's that time again....I'll be stopping in to see all the great entries that I missed. Here is my favoirte from the N&L category.
F5.6, 1/15, ISO 200, 55mm, tripod, RAW, taken from the boardwalk at Indian Rocks Beach, FL. It rained all day, but the sun finally made a quick appearance.
I had a couple favs but will post the one that I am most hoping will win a finalist. This was taken after a day of rain. I figured there wouldn't be a sunset because of the cloud cover, but the sun did make a quick appearance.
Great Blue Heron doing what he does best.
Chris, Kara, & Les, those are beautiful images!
Cant wait to see everyones photos this month.
With a little help from Chris, I re-worked this image & submitted for the second time. Thanks Chris!
this is a beautiful Sunset!!
Be careful of the mushrooms you find in the woods, lol!
If you move to and from the photo, it appears to move.
This effect was all done in camera using a 20-40 zoom lens with a shutter speed of 1/8 sec, f22 at ISO 100 and too much time on my hands as I was waiting to shoot a mountain bike race. No cropping was done, this is the whole enchilada.
Here's mine for the month, entered in the Monthly Theme category. The effect was all done in camera and no cropping was done.
Where is this thread listed under the forum? I can't find it in its usual place.
How did that happen? How did it become the 15th already? I am so looking forward to seeing everyone's entries. This is such an exciting time, full of promise and hope!
Some of my favorites from September didn't make EFP, so I won't even post any of them here. One that DID make an EFP is another resub. The third time was the charm for this photo. Times one and two it was passed over, but this time it received an EFP. I have some high hopes for it!
Anyway, my Martini is getting warm, so I'll go ahead and post, then I'll go ahead and toast! Best of luck to everyone, and congrats on making so many fantastic photographs each and every month.
I already posted a contest entry today, so I can't use the photo ID number. Furthermore, I don't have an electronic version of that particular photo with me today, so I'll have to just wait and post tomorrow.
It certainly is Martini time now!
Hey everyone, I can't believe the 15th is already here. I had my birthday on the 12th, but to be honest I was more excited for the 15th then I was for the 12th!! haha, obsessed much?
anyway heres my monthly favourite, it didn't get a EFP but I quite like it!
Here's my favorite from last month. Good luck everyone!
This is a very lovely dreamy photo.
I checked out your gallery. Of course Jasy is a doll. Where do you take your beach pictures? I live in SW Florida, some of your beach shots remind me of my area. Very lovely.
I'm glad this thread was entered into the wrong section ... I've never seen it before. Here is one of my favorites. Of course I'm a little partial since this is my little guy.
A wild sunflower wraps itself around a chain link fence.
Thanks Mary :-) All were taken at Sullivan's Island in South Carolina.
Chris I still have my fingers crossed for "30 seconds luck".
1/80 @ F4.5, 70mm, ISO 100. Shot outside the Uffizi in Florence on the way to see The Mind of Leonardo.
chrisbudny.com Susan, I kinda forgot about 30 Seconds! Perhaps I didn't want to "jinx" it by risking it here in the thread! hehehe... but yes, my fingers are certainly crossed for that one, too.
Great images showing up here, folks! I always love seeing what I missed, during the past month!
My fav. entry for Sept. Good luck everyone.
I've got my hopes on two of them. Here they are!
Everyone else is looking great too!!
Just kidding the HTML didn't work. You'll have to check my gallery for Bee and Moth.
Hello all and thanks for showing me all those wonderful pictures! Some of which I have already seen, admired and commented on, and some of which are new amazing experiences. Good luck with them!
My personal favorite is from a Saturday morning when I was having a lot of fun in my kitchen...I hope you enjoy it!
Starting with a cup of coffee...wine and chocolate will be saved for later today!
I shot these cone flowers with a relatively shallow depth of field and then used various filters (radial blur, liquify, Gaussian blur) to increase and change the quality of the background blur.
Originally uploaded the first week in September, I decided the photo needed a boost so I pulled it, increased the saturation and intensity of the color, and am resubmitting it in the Monthly Theme.
Good luck to everyone and thanks for sharing your photos and your thoughts.
I was on a drive through the woods on a wonderfully rainy day when this leaf tumbled onto my car's hood. I had to pull over and make a photo before it blew away. Having the trees reflected was a happy bonus.
Hello again! Like I said before, there are so many fantastic photos in this thread every month, and this month is certainly no exception!
As promised, here's my re-sub entry for the thread.
I was so surprised when Chris emailed me yesterday to tell me it was the 15th. I can not believe how fast time flies!
One of my favorites is of a wind blown leaf stuck in a chain link fence. It is a resubmit. I originally entered it back on January 16, 2006. I sometimes like to wait a while for the judges to forget a pic before resubmitting ;).
Anyway, maybe this time it will get a silver or a gold...oh wait a minute, it has a gold button :o)!
Chris, just discovered this cool thread! September was a dismal month for me. If I even get a finalist, my guess would be for this one! Good luck everyone!
But I'm glad my mistake brought you first-timers into the fold! Best of luck, to everyone!
Les--you're on to me, LOL!
And Chris, there is ALWAYS something to be said for happy accidents! Some of the best photos have been the result of a "mistake!"
Hi Gang! I think September was a tough month for us all where EFP's were concerned. As usual the competition is tough but I still have so much fun shooting no matter what the outcome here. Here are two of my fav's for September.
Guess what?!?! I remembered a shot that I entered last month. My mind still works...sometimes. Here it is.
Susan's Gallery Here, here Tamera! I'm enjoying BP more than I ever did because of participating in the discussions :) I really am thinking this thread is the coolest, seeing what everyone's favorite is!
Gabrielle, my daughter. One of the loves of my life.
ISO 1600, 1/13, 5.6, 55.0 mm, taken on 8-16-07 in early afternoon. Original in color but converted to black and white in photoshop.
This is my first time particpiating in this thread or even forum. I have been enjoying seeing everyone's wonderful pictures that they are hoping to see go on. They are all beautiful and great, and hope to one day be able to take photos like all of yours. This is my favorite picture for September and hope to see it go on. I have another one too, called Flower Blur that I hope to see go on as well. Good luck everyone!!!
This is actually one of my favorites that I have taken.
I was just out playing around with my camera with some black and white settings on my farm and came up with this.
I'm a huge fan of this thread and love seeing everyone's favorite images each month. This is my first time to try participating. I'd hate to jinx my image, but I'm really pulling for this shot of my son. It's one of my all-time favorite shots of him.
Good luck to everyone! And, thanks to Chris for hosting this fabulous thread each month!
Hi everyone! There are some fantastic photos posted here, as usual. I have ever gotten a finalist in the people category, but this is one of my favorites for this month.
Revisiting one of my favorite images of Evan - this time in BW. Thank you to Jennifer Alder for the idea -and for believing in this image like I do!
Okay, going to try this one more time. I haven't entered the contest yet today, so hopefully this will work. Here's my favorite from September!
Good luck to everyone with their favorites as well!!
FABULOUS photos, everybody! Seeing all your Sept faves has put a smile on my face tonight. I have to take a moment to choose my favorite from last month, but I just wanted to pop in and say good luck to all!
Friday night action from "the biggest little football town in the world", aka Maiden, NC.
Too many wonderful images in September to count. I especially like the sunset by Carol. Beautiful image, makes me wish I was there.
Anyway, here's one of mine for September. I have a thing for sports photography. poorly lit high school football fields offer challenges, but it's fun trying to get that perfect shot.
Resubmitted into the correct caregory!
Winner of the Photogroup 101 Celine Dion song theme. While my husband was holding our baby daughter I was struck by the contrast of her new skin on his rough, scarred hand.
I was wondering what happened to you Chris...haven't seen you on 101 for a while and I couldn't find this thread!
I didn't get much done in September, so my favorite is a resub from the 101 song title theme day. Better hopes for October!
Hi everybody, LOTS of great photos here.
I wish everybody the BEST of luck!!!
Here is one of my favorites, had a very hard time deciding which, so will just post this this one.
These are my neighbors son's female puppies.
They are a boxer and lab mix, 12 weeks old.
They were actually playing not dancing lol!
Comment's welcome and have a GREAT DAY!
Thanks Frank for help with the title!
A BIG congrat's to all the finalist and winner's and to everyone else, you ARE ALL WINNER'S to me!
9/13/07 7:33:18pm, 1/60sec, 12.80 aperture, 33.00mm, ISO 140, flash fired, sports mode.
Changed background to black, dreamy filter zoom no color, no blur, around 35% blend, applied image darken to origianl a tad.
My other favorite is my Charrrrrrge.
Colors enhanced and slight use of the underpainting filter.
I stopped by to wish all of you the BEST OF LUCK!!! Your work is both beautiful and inspirational!!!
Here is one of my favorites for September, entered into the Digital Darkroom category.
I wanted to wish everyone good luck in catching the judge's eye.
This was one among a series I took one special morning on the Santa Barbara breakwater.
Just wanted to wish the other members good luck in catching the judge's eye with their submissions.
chrisbudny.com hi folks! I had to write tonite cuz my sis has a new iPhone and I am actually composing this at a great bar in NYC ... I am such a geek!!
Good luck to all of you !!!!!
Best of luck to all of you for September contest results!
Here is my favourite photo. This was my first photo on this site!
Nikki's Gallery It's lovely, Anil--the pink tones are so fresh and the light is very nice. Congrats on your Editor's Picks button.
Good luck to you and to everyone else who has shared their wonderful entries--there's so much variety and I love seeing everyone's work. Shouldn't be too many days now.
This was my entry into the Sept M.T.
Panned on a high school receiver running for touchdown but thought it looked better with some PS artistic filters.
For the PG101 Meatloaf Song Title Theme.
Swiss chocolate photographed with Canon 100 mm macro lense, ISO-100, f/9, 0.6 s, natural light, diffusor, reflector, tripod.
Curves, saturation, clone, burn, crop and sharpen in PS7.
1st Place D&M Feb 2008.
Well - it is getting closer...and the nerves need something to calm down. How about some Swiss chocolate for that purpose? Have a bite, try to relax, enjoy - good luck everyone!
I'm unable to upload at this time, so I'll have to jump in next month!
In the meantime, I'll have one (or maybe two...) of those yummy chocolates!! Swiss is my all time favorite!
Great horned owl in front of redwood tree, California.
Getting anxious here ... drinking some nice California Sauvignon Blanc to pass the time (from the winery where my husband works, so we get it cheap, lol).
I'm not very confident about my September entries--it's so hard to know what the judges will like anymore--so I'm just uploading one that's a little different for me.
Well, I didn't enter too many for September, due to a new camera (and still learning how to work it), but here are 2 of my favorites.
Effect done with camera. Nothing done in post processing asides from resizing.
and here's the 2nd one.
I sure wish it had been today! I know they have put them out lots on the 24th, but they just don't seem to like Wed as a day for announcing them. Now because I am on the East Coast, it will probably be around 5:00-6:00pm before I know! I never mind the wait until it gets to the last of the month...then I am like ready to know. Once it gets around the 23rd, I start checking my email frequently! Now Cheri, for that drink, mix me a double of something good! Something with rum sounds good. :) I just had my chocolate for the evening, a chocolate brownie.
Popping into the party a bit late this time around. Lots of great shots here once again. Good luck everyone. Here is my choice for the month.
I've already downed a great dirty martini, and a wonderful glass of red (my aunt & uncle are quite hospitable hosts; remind me to visit frequently!) so I'm more than prepped to handle another day's wait, as it seems will be the case...!
chrisbudny.com Colleen; make a normal vodka martini, and pour into the shaker a sufficient amount of the brine ("olive juice" liquid) from the jar of green olives. The more brine, the dirtier the martini, but it can get overpowering, so go lightly at first, until you know your taste. Shake, shake, shake. Then garnish with 3 (or more) olives. I love olives. :) I prefer the Musco Family brand Spanish Queen olives (stuffed with pimento) not the wimpy little manzanillas. Tonite's dirty martini was further compounded by using anchovy-stuffed olives... :) Homemade bleu cheese-stuffed olives are also excellent.
There they are! I got one, but not on the one I expected, my first finalist I'm so excited! Congrats to finalists and non-finalists alike there were some great photos this time out as always!
I can't believe it but the finalists just came out at 10:52 Eastern time! I have never seen them come out so late! None for my fav...I think I jinx it when I post my fav. However, I did get one on my 2nd favorite An Evening Walk and one on my white egret. What a surprise!
This thread must be my lucky charm! My favorite made the finalists - whoo hooo!!! Congrats to all the finalists!!! I'm a happy girl tonight!!
I forgot to say congrats to everyone, those with finalists and those who didn't get one this time, just keep shooting and resubmitting!
My streak has finally broke. I hadn't had a finalist since December of last year. I'm very happy to say...I got one. I'm thrilled!
I knew something was up when I saw so many responses to the thread.
Congrats to all you finalists!
Two here...and one was my fav, so that's pretty cool.
Congrats everyone! Good luck in the next round! One here!
divinelovephotography.com How funny, with all the talk of alcohol and chocolate I ran to the store. As soon as I left the finalist were announced!!!
It seems that's what happened last month too.
Anyway, a big congratulations to all of you!!! Best of luck in the next round. I am thrilled to have 3 finalists!!!
It has been rough here in Southern California with all the fires, smoke and ashes! I hope you are all safe!!!
Chris, I can't wait to try your dirty martini recipe. I'll be lifting my glass to all the contest entrants--way to go, everybody, and keep on shooting!
sherry-adkins-photography.com Congrats to everyone. The fav that I posted here got a finalist. I'm sure glad the finalists were announced today.....with Halloween just around the corner, there is way too much chocolate in my house!
Congratulations to all finalists! And Best Of Luck for final results.
Congratulations to all finalists and good luck next!
I got two, and those were my favorites, so I am very happy!
Still happy, as I received 4 finalist this month.
Congratulations to all who received a finalist and the best of luck to you in the next round!
Nikki's Gallery I am very pleased that my favorite was noticed. Congratulations to everyone else who managed one or more finalists--way fewer percentage wise this time than usual! As Colleen says, just keep on keepin' on--love seeing ALL the images every day.
Congratulations, to the Finalists here! Nikki's right---only 1.7% of the entries made it to Finalist. I have all my monthly BP history stats at home, but I believe that is the lowest percentage I've seen, in 2 years! So to garner a Finalist this month really is something special!
I got off the computer last night thinking that the Finalists would be released sometime Thursday.
Was happily surprised to find out this morning that "Dear John" got a finalist medal! My two favorites didn't make it... but I really like the one that did!
Susan's Gallery I was right on about my Sept, no finalists :( But I am so pleased at the ones I saw that did. Congratulations everyone!
Big Congratulations to all the finalists!!!! WTG!!
I received 2 -- yayy!!!
Now how about a round of chocolate martinis to cheer on the next round?!!
Kerby's Gallery Congratulations to all the finalists.
I been on vacation and just got home but I got a finalist which was a nice treat.
It is Keshia in a swing.
Place finnish and to Susan for her 2 Second Place finishes and to anyone else I missed who participated in this thread who made it through the finalist stage.
Congratulations go out to Christopher for his First Place finnish and to Susan for her 2 Second Place finnishes and to anyone else on this thread who made it through the finalist round that I mistakenly missed.
Everyone, good luck on next month's contest.
Way to go, Susan and Chris!
Oops, I see I missed Les Rhoades..... Congratualtions on your 2nd Place.
Yes, congrats to all you gold winners, particularly our host, Chris!
Again, I missed Donna Pagaskis who had 2 2nd Place finnishes this month. Kudos Donna.
Nikki's Gallery Special congratulations to everyone who picked up a winner's button for September--just browsed all of them quickly and there are amazing photos among them.
And I think I saw two gold buttons for you, David O? One on the image you posted here and another on a wave with a surfer. Great job!!
Thanks Nikki. Nope, the one I posted here didn't even make it to the finalist stage even though I do like it better than the one that went further. Go Figure. But I am quite thrilled about getting a 1st place this month. I didn't expect it.
I'm going to try to get to everybody's gallery, but if I don't, congratulations to all the winners!! See you all next month!
Congratulations David, Les and Donna for your two wins.
Congrats to everyone else for their finalists and wins!!!
I was VERY lucky and received 3 wins.
chrisbudny.com Let me add my Congratulations to everyone's great imagery!
This is my first-ever First Place, and I was surprised at how strongly I reacted---I thought I'd "mellowed" in two years on BP, to not getting flustered over a win---WRONG! I'm still beaming, and had to make 4 phone calls tonite to tell people!
And, it was a resubmitted image (no rework, just a plain resubmit from inside my gallery)---so don't give up on the images you believe in!
Don't forget, we'll do this thread again, around 11/15, for the October results... (I promise to try and put the thread in the right place, next time!) Also, be sure to make some kind of record of your OCT. entries by 10/31, before BP clears your "Contest Entries" page---so you'll remember what your favorite was, for the 11/15 thread!
divinelovephotography.com Congratulations to all of you!! Thanks for the well wishes.
My winning images were also resubmits, just entered into a different category. It's the first time I have ever won twice in one month, so that is very special for me.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!! You are all such an inspiration!! Keep up the great work!!!
sherry-adkins-photography.com Congrats to all winners! I will try to make it to all the winner's galleries, but if I don't or miss someone, a big congrats to you. And as far as resubmits, I resubmitted one this month that was completely overlooked before and this month got an EFP. SO if you believe in an image, resubmit it!
MARYIACOFANO.COM Congratulations to all the winners !!
Beautiful images! When I get home next week I will be able to view all of them.
Susan's Gallery Congrats to everyone on their wins! Glad to see so many from this thread!
Sorry Susan. 3 wins..... Great job.
Kerby's Gallery A Big Congratulations to all the Sept. winners.

one of my favorites is of a wind blown leaf stuck in a chain link fence. it is a resubmit. i originally entered it back on january 16, 2006. i sometimes like to wait a while for the judges to forget a pic before resubmitting ;).
anyway, maybe this time it will get a silver or a gold...oh wait a minute, it has a gold button :o)!
chris, just discovered this cool thread! september was a dismal month for me. if i even get a finalist, my guess would be for this one! good luck everyone!
but i'm glad my mistake brought you first-timers into the fold! best of luck, to everyone!
les--you're on to me, lol!
and chris, there is always something to be said for happy accidents! some of the best photos have been the result of a "mistake!"
hi gang! i think september was a tough month for us all where efp's were concerned. as usual the competition is tough but i still have so much fun shooting no matter what the outcome here. here are two of my fav's for september.
guess what?!?! i remembered a shot that i entered last month. my mind still works...sometimes. here it is.
susan's gallery here, here tamera! i'm enjoying bp more than i ever did because of participating in the discussions :) i really am thinking this thread is the coolest, seeing what everyone's favorite is!
gabrielle, my daughter. one of the loves of my life.
iso 1600, 1/13, 5.6, 55.0 mm, taken on 8-16-07 in early afternoon. original in color but converted to black and white in photoshop.
this is my first time particpiating in this thread or even forum. i have been enjoying seeing everyone's wonderful pictures that they are hoping to see go on. they are all beautiful and great, and hope to one day be able to take photos like all of yours. this is my favorite picture for september and hope to see it go on. i have another one too, called flower blur that i hope to see go on as well. good luck everyone!!!
this is actually one of my favorites that i have taken.
i was just out playing around with my camera with some black and white settings on my farm and came up with this.
i'm a huge fan of this thread and love seeing everyone's favorite images each month. this is my first time to try participating. i'd hate to jinx my image, but i'm really pulling for this shot of my son. it's one of my all-time favorite shots of him.
good luck to everyone! and, thanks to chris for hosting this fabulous thread each month!
hi everyone! there are some fantastic photos posted here, as usual. i have ever gotten a finalist in the people category, but this is one of my favorites for this month.
revisiting one of my favorite images of evan - this time in bw. thank you to jennifer alder for the idea -and for believing in this image like i do!
okay, going to try this one more time. i haven't entered the contest yet today, so hopefully this will work. here's my favorite from september!
good luck to everyone with their favorites as well!!
fabulous photos, everybody! seeing all your sept faves has put a smile on my face tonight. i have to take a moment to choose my favorite from last month, but i just wanted to pop in and say good luck to all!
friday night action from "the biggest little football town in the world", aka maiden, nc.
too many wonderful images in september to count. i especially like the sunset by carol. beautiful image, makes me wish i was there.
anyway, here's one of mine for september. i have a thing for sports photography. poorly lit high school football fields offer challenges, but it's fun trying to get that perfect shot.
resubmitted into the correct caregory!
winner of the photogroup 101 celine dion song theme. while my husband was holding our baby daughter i was struck by the contrast of her new skin on his rough, scarred hand.
i was wondering what happened to you chris...haven't seen you on 101 for a while and i couldn't find this thread!
i didn't get much done in september, so my favorite is a resub from the 101 song title theme day. better hopes for october!
hi everybody, lots of great photos here.
i wish everybody the best of luck!!!
here is one of my favorites, had a very hard time deciding which, so will just post this this one.
these are my neighbors son's female puppies.
they are a boxer and lab mix, 12 weeks old.
they were actually playing not dancing lol!
comment's welcome and have a great day!
thanks frank for help with the title!
a big congrat's to all the finalist and winner's and to everyone else, you are all winner's to me!
9/13/07 7:33:18pm, 1/60sec, 12.80 aperture, 33.00mm, iso 140, flash fired, sports mode.
changed background to black, dreamy filter zoom no color, no blur, around 35% blend, applied image darken to origianl a tad.
my other favorite is my charrrrrrge.
colors enhanced and slight use of the underpainting filter.
i stopped by to wish all of you the best of luck!!! your work is both beautiful and inspirational!!!
here is one of my favorites for september, entered into the digital darkroom category.
i wanted to wish everyone good luck in catching the judge's eye.
this was one among a series i took one special morning on the santa barbara breakwater.
just wanted to wish the other members good luck in catching the judge's eye with their submissions.
chrisbudny.com hi folks! i had to write tonite cuz my sis has a new iphone and i am actually composing this at a great bar in nyc ... i am such a geek!!
good luck to all of you !!!!!
best of luck to all of you for september contest results!
here is my favourite photo. this was my first photo on this site!
nikki's gallery it's lovely, anil--the pink tones are so fresh and the light is very nice. congrats on your editor's picks button.
good luck to you and to everyone else who has shared their wonderful entries--there's so much variety and i love seeing everyone's work. shouldn't be too many days now.
this was my entry into the sept m.t.
panned on a high school receiver running for touchdown but thought it looked better with some ps artistic filters.
for the pg101 meatloaf song title theme.
swiss chocolate photographed with canon 100 mm macro lense, iso-100, f/9, 0.6 s, natural light, diffusor, reflector, tripod.
curves, saturation, clone, burn, crop and sharpen in ps7.
1st place d&m feb 2008.
well - it is getting closer...and the nerves need something to calm down. how about some swiss chocolate for that purpose? have a bite, try to relax, enjoy - good luck everyone!
i'm unable to upload at this time, so i'll have to jump in next month!
in the meantime, i'll have one (or maybe two...) of those yummy chocolates!! swiss is my all time favorite!
great horned owl in front of redwood tree, california.
getting anxious here ... drinking some nice california sauvignon blanc to pass the time (from the winery where my husband works, so we get it cheap, lol).
i'm not very confident about my september entries--it's so hard to know what the judges will like anymore--so i'm just uploading one that's a little different for me.
well, i didn't enter too many for september, due to a new camera (and still learning how to work it), but here are 2 of my favorites.
effect done with camera. nothing done in post processing asides from resizing.
and here's the 2nd one.
i sure wish it had been today! i know they have put them out lots on the 24th, but they just don't seem to like wed as a day for announcing them. now because i am on the east coast, it will probably be around 5:00-6:00pm before i know! i never mind the wait until it gets to the last of the month...then i am like ready to know. once it gets around the 23rd, i start checking my email frequently! now cheri, for that drink, mix me a double of something good! something with rum sounds good. :) i just had my chocolate for the evening, a chocolate brownie.
popping into the party a bit late this time around. lots of great shots here once again. good luck everyone. here is my choice for the month.
i've already downed a great dirty martini, and a wonderful glass of red (my aunt & uncle are quite hospitable hosts; remind me to visit frequently!) so i'm more than prepped to handle another day's wait, as it seems will be the case...!
chrisbudny.com colleen; make a normal vodka martini, and pour into the shaker a sufficient amount of the brine ("olive juice" liquid) from the jar of green olives. the more brine, the dirtier the martini, but it can get overpowering, so go lightly at first, until you know your taste. shake, shake, shake. then garnish with 3 (or more) olives. i love olives. :) i prefer the musco family brand spanish queen olives (stuffed with pimento) not the wimpy little manzanillas. tonite's dirty martini was further compounded by using anchovy-stuffed olives... :) homemade bleu cheese-stuffed olives are also excellent.
there they are! i got one, but not on the one i expected, my first finalist i'm so excited! congrats to finalists and non-finalists alike there were some great photos this time out as always!
i can't believe it but the finalists just came out at 10:52 eastern time! i have never seen them come out so late! none for my fav...i think i jinx it when i post my fav. however, i did get one on my 2nd favorite an evening walk and one on my white egret. what a surprise!
this thread must be my lucky charm! my favorite made the finalists - whoo hooo!!! congrats to all the finalists!!! i'm a happy girl tonight!!
i forgot to say congrats to everyone, those with finalists and those who didn't get one this time, just keep shooting and resubmitting!
my streak has finally broke. i hadn't had a finalist since december of last year. i'm very happy to say...i got one. i'm thrilled!
i knew something was up when i saw so many responses to the thread.
congrats to all you finalists!
two here...and one was my fav, so that's pretty cool.
congrats everyone! good luck in the next round! one here!
divinelovephotography.com how funny, with all the talk of alcohol and chocolate i ran to the store. as soon as i left the finalist were announced!!!
it seems that's what happened last month too.
anyway, a big congratulations to all of you!!! best of luck in the next round. i am thrilled to have 3 finalists!!!
it has been rough here in southern california with all the fires, smoke and ashes! i hope you are all safe!!!
chris, i can't wait to try your dirty martini recipe. i'll be lifting my glass to all the contest entrants--way to go, everybody, and keep on shooting!
sherry-adkins-photography.com congrats to everyone. the fav that i posted here got a finalist. i'm sure glad the finalists were announced today.....with halloween just around the corner, there is way too much chocolate in my house!
congratulations to all finalists! and best of luck for final results.
congratulations to all finalists and good luck next!
i got two, and those were my favorites, so i am very happy!
still happy, as i received 4 finalist this month.
congratulations to all who received a finalist and the best of luck to you in the next round!
nikki's gallery i am very pleased that my favorite was noticed. congratulations to everyone else who managed one or more finalists--way fewer percentage wise this time than usual! as colleen says, just keep on keepin' on--love seeing all the images every day.
congratulations, to the finalists here! nikki's right---only 1.7% of the entries made it to finalist. i have all my monthly bp history stats at home, but i believe that is the lowest percentage i've seen, in 2 years! so to garner a finalist this month really is something special!
i got off the computer last night thinking that the finalists would be released sometime thursday.
was happily surprised to find out this morning that "dear john" got a finalist medal! my two favorites didn't make it... but i really like the one that did!
susan's gallery i was right on about my sept, no finalists :( but i am so pleased at the ones i saw that did. congratulations everyone!
big congratulations to all the finalists!!!! wtg!!
i received 2 -- yayy!!!
now how about a round of chocolate martinis to cheer on the next round?!!
kerby's gallery congratulations to all the finalists.
i been on vacation and just got home but i got a finalist which was a nice treat.
it is keshia in a swing.
place finnish and to susan for her 2 second place finishes and to anyone else i missed who participated in this thread who made it through the finalist stage.
congratulations go out to christopher for his first place finnish and to susan for her 2 second place finnishes and to anyone else on this thread who made it through the finalist round that i mistakenly missed.
everyone, good luck on next month's contest.
way to go, susan and chris!
oops, i see i missed les rhoades..... congratualtions on your 2nd place.
yes, congrats to all you gold winners, particularly our host, chris!
again, i missed donna pagaskis who had 2 2nd place finnishes this month. kudos donna.
nikki's gallery special congratulations to everyone who picked up a winner's button for september--just browsed all of them quickly and there are amazing photos among them.
and i think i saw two gold buttons for you, david o? one on the image you posted here and another on a wave with a surfer. great job!!
thanks nikki. nope, the one i posted here didn't even make it to the finalist stage even though i do like it better than the one that went further. go figure. but i am quite thrilled about getting a 1st place this month. i didn't expect it.
i'm going to try to get to everybody's gallery, but if i don't, congratulations to all the winners!! see you all next month!
congratulations david, les and donna for your two wins.
congrats to everyone else for their finalists and wins!!!
i was very lucky and received 3 wins.
chrisbudny.com let me add my congratulations to everyone's great imagery!
this is my first-ever first place, and i was surprised at how strongly i reacted---i thought i'd "mellowed" in two years on bp, to not getting flustered over a win---wrong! i'm still beaming, and had to make 4 phone calls tonite to tell people!
and, it was a resubmitted image (no rework, just a plain resubmit from inside my gallery)---so don't give up on the images you believe in!
don't forget, we'll do this thread again, around 11/15, for the october results... (i promise to try and put the thread in the right place, next time!) also, be sure to make some kind of record of your oct. entries by 10/31, before bp clears your "contest entries" page---so you'll remember what your favorite was, for the 11/15 thread!
divinelovephotography.com congratulations to all of you!! thanks for the well wishes.
my winning images were also resubmits, just entered into a different category. it's the first time i have ever won twice in one month, so that is very special for me.
have a wonderful weekend everyone!! you are all such an inspiration!! keep up the great work!!!
sherry-adkins-photography.com congrats to all winners! i will try to make it to all the winner's galleries, but if i don't or miss someone, a big congrats to you. and as far as resubmits, i resubmitted one this month that was completely overlooked before and this month got an efp. so if you believe in an image, resubmit it!
maryiacofano.com congratulations to all the winners !!
beautiful images! when i get home next week i will be able to view all of them.
susan's gallery congrats to everyone on their wins! glad to see so many from this thread!
sorry susan. 3 wins..... great job.
kerby's gallery a big congratulations to all the sept. winners.

We’ve known about Disjointed, Netflix’s upcoming stoner comedy starring Katy Bates and co-created by Chuck Lorre (Mom, The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men), for nearly a year now, but it wasn’t until Thursday that we were given a first look. In the 19-second teaser cheekily released on 4/20, we see Kathy Bates emerge from a smoke-filled weed dispensary while puffing on a joint. She says nothing, because what else is there to say? This is a show about Kathy Bates working in a dispensary, and that’s more than enough to get people interested.
[Disjointed] follows Ruth (Bates), a lifelong advocate for legalization, as she finally lives her dream as the owner of an Los Angeles cannabis dispensary. Joining her at Ruth’s Alternative Caring are three charismatic “budtenders” (Dougie Baldwin, Elizabeth Ho and Elizabeth Alderfer), her entrepreneurial twentysomething son (Aaron Moten) and a very troubled security guard who served in Afghanistan (Tone Bell).
All 20 episodes of Disjointed will be released on Netflix August 25.

Help the USTA provide relief those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
In the wake of the devastation left behind by Hurricane Sandy, hundreds of thousands of people in the Northeast are without basic necessities and are in need of help.

This study was designed to provide in-depth and contextualised data about how services may better support refugee parents to care for their children. It adds to the developing evidence base of what works with families, children and young people with a refugee background and provides evidence about how to best support positive parenting and family relationships. It also provides new evidence of how families perceive and draw on different supports, networks and connections in order to support them in their resettlement.
The aim of this study was to develop an understanding of the formal and informal sources of social supports, resources and connections required by refugee parents and their children to support positive parenting and family relationships.
a national online survey with Commonwealth funded service providers working with refugee families.
The study found that the majority of parents and children, whilst experiencing significant disadvantages and sometimes complex issues, were also remarkably resilient and positive. The key issues facing families were the cultural differences in parenting practices and the challenges that these presented; the difficulties children experienced learning to live bi‑culturally; and the concerns parents had about their children living in a new country.
Service providers described the following programs and interventions to be the most effective in supporting positive family relationships with families from a refugee background.
Service providers emphasised the following characteristics of effective service delivery important in supporting positive family relationships.

iPhone is one of the best and most popular phones around the world due to its design and operating system. Every improvement it makes can capture people’s attention. So does the upcoming iPhone 7. For iPhone owners, we play games, watch videos, record and work on our phones. Imagine when we make a video in MP4 format and want to share with friends, what shall we do? When we download a movie and want to watch it outdoors, what shall we do? Well, we need to put them into our iPhone so that we can share and watch those MP4 files. But how to transfer MP4 to iPhone? Here we will know some feasible ways.
AirMore is a multi-functional application that could help you transfer and manage your phone data. As a web-based app, you do not need to upload your files to Cloud server first and download to your device or log in any account to transfer data. You just need to link your mobile device to the computer. Better yet, it offers more than one connection method. Different from most file transfer tools, this application works without cable, so you can get rid of USB problems. And you can copy MP4 to iPhone as well as Android phone.
Go to App Store and search for this app. Download and install it on your mobile.
Set network to make sure your iPhone and computer are in the same Wi-Fi. Open the application on the phone and visit AirMore Web on PC.
Tap “Scan to connect” button and scan the code on the computer screen.
Click “Videos” and then “Upload Files”. Choose MP4 files to transfer.
When the process completes, you will get your videos on your iPhone. Moreover, you can not only import MP4 to iPhone, but also transfer videos from iPhone to computer, which will help you save a lot of storage space.

The replies were sought after a PIL was filed by NGO Removal of Corruption and Welfare Society.
Even though Parliament has extended protection to unauthorised colonies of Delhi by amending the National Capital of Delhi (special provision) Act, the South municipal corporation on Wednesday told the High Court that “illegal” properties will not be allowed to be sold or rented.
The counsel for South corporation told the High Court that the properties that had already been booked as “unauthorised” before the Act was passed, will be held in status quo. “Even though no sealing or demolition can be done, if we have booked the property, lists are sent to the sub-registrar in the Revenue department to make sure that the properties are blocked from sale,” advocate Ajay Arora said.
The submission was made after the court of Justice Badar Durrez Ahmed and Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva asked the South corporation and the Delhi government whether there were any rules or guidelines to ensure that unauthorised buildings are not sold off to “unsuspecting” buyers.
The replies were sought after a PIL was filed by NGO Removal of Corruption and Welfare Society to protect the “public at large” from being “deceived into buying unauthorised development”. During the brief hearing, counsel for the NGO Ambareesh Singh Bhadauria said that there should be “preventive action” by the government to protect the public from buying or renting “illegal” premises.
Citing the example of the Coca Cola building in Mumbai, the PIL alleges that buyers are usually unaware of the legal status of the properties and may be put under the impression that the property is “authorised”. “By the time the buyer realises that the property is an unauthorised development and that the developer has cheated and defrauded, it is too late,” the plea states.
Arora said under the present rules, any unauthorised construction is “booked” and the information is sent to the sub-registrar in the Delhi government’s Revenue department, so that the sale or rent deeds of the property cannot be registered.
The High Court asked the government and the South corporation to give a status report on the number of properties that have been booked and the details of the guidelines to prohibit the “transfer of properties that are unauthorisedly constructed or booked”.

What are Essential Oils Academy Class Commercials? Well, I developed a collection of ten “commercials”–fun, interactive text and images to use in promoting the Essential Oils and Pregnancy class I hosted on Facebook. They worked so well I decided to make them available for all of you as well.
These Commercials are more than just simple promotional images: they’re fun and interactive posts (I think I already said that!) and they get people engaged and enjoying themselves, increasing anticipation for the coming class. Below, I’ve got a sample from one of them so you can get a taste for how they work.
Right now, we have several sets of Class Commercials available, and more are coming. You can purchase them below, or on the pages for specific classes (each set of Class Commercials has been released with a specific Class, though most are usable with any Class). For example, on the class linked just above, you’ll notice that there are three versions of the class available: (1) Class Only, (2) Class + Automatic Class Setup option, and (3) Class + Automatic Class Setup option + Class Commercials.
You can purchase the Class Commercials separately, if you’ve already bought the class, or as part of the second upgraded version of the classes. Either way, you can get them for only $5.00. They’re a great way to spark interest and excitement in the hours leading up to the Class.

It is easier to clean up the spill on the rug because most of the spill is caught in the pad. And pads are easy to clean because they are machine-washable. Plus, it is cheaper to replace a stained pad that it is to have to buy a car. Another plus to the pad's absorbency is that it also will protect the floor from getting stained by a spill.
