Maybe next year the topics could be decided in advance. A bit like the POTY competitions in the photo mags. |

I think my proposal will be more appropriate to the semi-amateur (characterised as an SLR owner minimum) and by nature means a casual shooter would have difficulty competing. However a single photo comp is more appropriate for the casual shooter who might only have a P&S. The casual and informal nature of the ten-tenths forum means the latter is probably better, although I'd prefer to compete in for semi-amateur comp myself |

Here's a few theme suggestions...
panning pits black and white detail shot arty (allow more post prod for this one) people (pit crew, drivers, marshalls, spectators etc) crash? comedy? I don't know if it's a good idea to split up the different types, eg... rally endurance single seater Not so keen on the date idea as I don't get out very often - and it'll mean not much happens over the winter. |

I am on other non motorsport forums where they have a monthly competition and the rules are dead simple.
EG The September competition is for photos taken between the 1st and 30th September, basic colour correction and cropping are all that is allowed. Voting is done by a poll where you are only allowed one vote but you can change it for a period of seven days and the winner each month is used as the home page on the forum website. All entries are sent to and uploaded by one of the moderators with none of the images being identifiable, the only difference on this forum would be that they would probably have been posted in one of the threads along the way. I suppose a rule could be that phots could have been previously linked too but not actually displayed in the forum itself. Some people worry about not being able to get out each month well its not imperative to enter each month surely. If anyone is able to generate a bit of sponsorship there could always be a separate photo of the year competition, or self fund it by people paying to enter but that would probably kill it before it was even born.

Do you mean having a theme is restrictive? I think it makes it easier to judge. It's easier to pick the best panning shot (and everybody's got one of those) - than to try and judge an excellent panning shot against an equally excellent arty shot - they're two completely different things. It all becomes much more subjective - perhaps more people like a panning shot than an arty shot - but it doesn't mean that the arty shot isn't good. Still, I'm easy - so long as we get somewhere with it.
How about a competition to see how long it can take a bunch of photographers to organise a simple photo comp? |

Ten-Tenths will be announcing an official "Photo Of The Year 2007" competition shortly.
If this is a success we may consider expanding it into a monthly contest for 2008 with an overall prize at the end of the year. |

Is it now decided that everyone is treated the same and is judged purely on the photo, not the experience/occupation of the shooter? That will definitely be simpler to police and should stop protests as to am/pro status!

Apart from it being open-ended, what about the IP ownership issues everybody goes on about relating to photos taken at circuits, and the agreements that might be in place. |
