October 2018

No problem. With the crop I meant: first to make it 8 by 10 and a small crop on top of that. I get your point.

  That lens is very rewarding

Thank you Bent, John and Frank for your comments.

Mfloyd - beautiful grove scene

Amando - another subtle and delightful image

Birna - Apple with a bite out of it is a delight

There are many beautiful images in this month's thread that inspire me to go out and take more pictures.

That is the spirit of this effort!!! Yes!!!

That is the spirit of this effort!!! Yes!!!

And I agree, was out many days with the camera, but I don't get the pictures processed the same day, and if I have to stick to the rules, they have to be taken on the day.
But it is the time of the year where we have a full colour palette from green to yellow, very beautiful.
Pacos nice BW portrait is a digression from the autumn colours.
Was out this morning in the local forest, no camera, was running

And I agree, was out many days with the camera, but I don't get the pictures processed the same day,

That is not a strict rule to my knowledge.  Just October 2018 pictures must be posted in October 2018

[Birna Rørslett]

We only ask for images to be taken within the designated time period, ie. the actual month ....

[Frank Fremerey]

I have to stick to the rules, they have to be taken on the day.

There is no such rule anymore.

There has been in the first year a rule "post by noon next day" (time zone rule).

It was called "a picture a day".

Curretly the rules are:

no more that 4/month per members
no more than 30/month per supporters
no more than 1/24h for everyone
October pics in October (replace October for "current month")

[Birna Rørslett]

An accurate summing up, Frank. And of course the "rules" are just guide lines to avoid say flooding the forum with a lot of images taken at the same time. There is no count-down mechanism to tell 24 hrs have elapsed since the last photo was posted .... There is no harm done if one waits just a little longer posting one's contribution.

I agree. It is more a general guideline. If you post two within 23 hours and then 3 days not, noone will have trouble with that, also if you post one at 23:30 and another one at 00:30 seems OK as long as you do not do it every day and stick to the 30/moth rule...

[Birna Rørslett]

Yes, that is correct. Time can contract or expand in one's perception -- we all know the feeling.

We hardly ever observe a participant in these threads who is actively bending these guide lines anyway, so this is by and large a moot issue.

Good to know, maybe I can post just slightly more then;)
