rymus

Something with massive potential for variety, here's an alternative theme to the soon to be challenged "Hairy Toes" theme...

Conflict - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict

Entries run until the 30th August. Upload to the usual spot; http://photos.rymus.net

Awesome theme for this one. I know for sure I wouldn't have anything in the archives suitable for this one. I can't wait to see what people come up with.

Way to make it easy! Not..

Thinking cap will have to be firmly stuck to head for this one.

This is the first time I've actually gone out and taken a photo for the challenge instead of relying on an archive shot. Looking forward to seeing other peoples angle on this.

rymus

excellent.. We've finally succeeded in getting people thinking. And to think, it only took 28 challenges to do it! Phew!

Morlar

Kind of wish I had photographed some of that orange order 'Honour thy king fear thy god love the brotherhood' kbumpf last time I was up there. Conflict -hmm I have a portrait of 2 models in a pillow fight if thats any use.

rymus

aye, that'd be an outright winner...

trooney

Yeah, unless they're male models - or hollowfibre pillows...

Glad to be of service

I had the perfect chance to get a great shot of 2 taxi drivers fighting in Times Square in New York over one hitting the other's bumper.

I had the camera poised to take it out, but one of the guys spotted me and gave me an awful dirty look, so i thought it wouldn't be too wise to get on the wrong side of an NY cabbie

The one that got away!!!

Does it have to be people?

I hope not

No people! Conflict of copper and alluminium coins, for instance :-)
I was thinking about conflict between my belly and my pants, but it wouldn't be nice at all...

Hey Guys, I'm brand new to the forum and thought i'd introduce myself, are there any prerequisites to entering the competition or are all welcome?

I'm a 19 year old product design student in DIT living in Greystones and i've a good interest in photography, the general standard here looked excellent from what i've seen and I thought it might be nice to join in, so yeah, hi

gerky

Welcome kavanadb, theres a list of rules in a tread at the top of the Photo Challenge forum,each challenge has a different theme and all are welcome.

rymus

Hi kavana, as angel has said, all are welcome. I see you've already uploaded your photo so I don't need to go through the process

trooney

So I see all the photos for this months challenge already up. But no voting access...?
All really nice shots. I was wondering how people would interpret this one. Well, it would seem.

GristlyEnd

Mine doesn't seem to be there

Edit: Sorry my mistake. Don't even recognise mine from the thumbnail

Muineach

bugger, I put up a non-cloned version oops, it was to remove the swing set in the background, oh well :rolleyes:

gerky

Mine doesn't seem to be up but its my first time entering so maybe it was my fault.

rymus

try again.. I'm just doing the processing on it now.

by the by, from now on I reserve the right to add my own captions to any photos that come in without captions on them...

gerky

Try again as in you want me to send it through again?Its called preemptive strike.
I'm not really bothered to much rymus its not a winning shot anyway.

trooney

It isn't about winning! I love the dizzy highs of anticipation while waiting to see other peoples interpretation of the theme. Probably more than the voting.

PS... vote for mine

Fey!

Trooney is right; it's not about winning.
