Photography Competition

Round 1 Judgings

This is a competition my husband and I decided to join together. His entries might end up being posted here as well, we'll see what he thinks. We had talked about running a competition similar to this at one point in time, so to see one like it and get to participate is pretty cool.

Don't have much else to say except that, unlike how seriously I am taking Little Miss Sunshine, this one is really just for fun. My husband wanted to see just how hard it was to compete in one of these things, and now that he's on his second day of working on his entry I think he's finally appreciating just how challenging it can be!




Photography Competition

Photography Competition at BoolProp.Com


Scoring
Photo taking skill (framing, composition etc. Read both photography tutorials for an explanation of this): 10 points
Suitability for the theme (did you follow instructions): 5 points
Originality (was yours different? Was there something that made it stand out?): 5 points
Total: 20 points


Round 1
A New Home (yes there was a Star Wars DVD case next to me)

Please enter ONE photo of a new sim family/single sim/couple/pet/whatever having just moved into their new home. Their reaction does not have to be posetive. Also please give a small explanation about your photo eg "Sally Sim has just moved into her new dorm room and doesn't like her roommate." Entries will be judged on compostion, framing, colour and the capturing of a suitable mood (this means, adherance to the theme). I will determine if this will be an elimination round after seeing contestant numbers. make sure you zoom in enough for us to see the sims reaction you can use the "tab" camera if you wish. If somebody knows a good tutorial for it I will post a link here.

A New Home
My Worst Nightmare

My Worst Nightmare

So much for my knight in shining armor. So much for, "It'll be great living away from home, no rules!" So much for him paying his half of the rent, him bothering to do his half of the chores, him being even half the man I've always dreamed of. So much for me going to school and getting the great career, the great husband, the great kids. Instead I'm here, in our third apartment in so many months, avoiding the landlord, working nine to five in a job I hate, while all he does is play his $700 guitar all day and he can't even be bothered to go out and get a job. Yeah. So much for happily ever after.

Judges' Ruling:

Av S: 9.3
Av O: 3.6
Av T: 4.6
Av Tot: 17.5
Comments: I think you also have too much CC, but the story is cool. That guitar is pretty cool, too. Nice pose and use of various objects from the game, I can see you put in a lot of work.

Result: Fourth Overall

Wow Bitsy, that picture is awesome. Those decorations are so real, where in the world did you get them? I love ho you used the naturally beat up items, and the Sim' reaction is so real, and priceless. If I was a judge, you'd definitely win, this is awesome!
