I Clicked it Up a Notch Photography Contest-August 2012

I am happy to say I had a better selection of images to choose from this month. Thanks mostly to the Shooting 301: Elements of Design workshop I’m currently taking. I chose this image because I am really drawn to the color and light in this one.

Did you click it up a notch this month?? I know you did!! Show us what you got!

In order to be eligible to win, please read the list below.

  • -Only one photo in the entry post.
  • -Our button (not just a link) must be in the post.
  • -The photo needs to have been taken this month.
  • -Summit your permalink, not your main blog address. You can use a flickr account as well (Just add the button in the comment section)

Click It Up A Notch

That’s it! It’s that simple! So go through all your photos you have taken this month and submit your favorite/best one. Don’t forget to leave comments on the other entries because that is half the fun!! I recommend commenting on the 5 people in front of you. That way everyone gets at least 5 comments.

Also, submit your photo early since those seem to be the ones who receive the most comments! I won’t be able to comment on everyone’s photos this month. We just moved and are currently in a hotel. Life is kind of crazy! I’m hoping I will be able to start commenting on everyone again next month. That doesn’t mean I don’t look at each and every entry though!! I do and I love seeing your work!

We will pick our top 5 favorite and then you will vote for the winner.

  3. I took a photo of my sweet little boy earlier in August. He’s 13 months old and such a cutie. I’m really proud of this photo because it just captures his sweet nature and his beautiful dimples but when I went to upload it, it says that it was taken in April… ?? I guess I never set the date correctly on my camera. I really wanted to submit it, but don’t want people to think I’m not following the rules. So bummed. :(
