photo effects - photography contest


Goal:

Photographers, let us show the photoshoppers that cool images don't have to be chopped (photoshopped)! Show that even a natural photo can be awesome.
Photographic effects can be for example: long shutterspeed with zoom, lightpainting, IR filters,... or simply come up with your own special effects. Adding special effects afterwards is not allowed, and no 'in camera' gimmicks (HDR, panoramic, partial desaturation...) either.

jawshoewhah: Let me get this strait: You want people to upload photos that have glitches or off focus effects that somehow turned out looking pretty cool? Or is that just one idea? (107 days ago)
