so, ive been trying to think of something FUN to do on my blog-some type of contest/give-away.
the awesome RADTASTIC kaiser’s recently did a photo contest where they had their blog readers choose their favorite ring image. i loved the idea-and started thinking of what kind of image i could use.
and i came up with feet!
i shoot feet constantly, on every session unless asked not to. and the weirdest thing is, i HATE feet in real life. i hate for anyone else’s feet to touch me. only baby feet and anna feet can i handle. other feet can touch my actual feet-feet on feet touching is okay. but do not touch me ANYWHERE else on my body with your skank feet.
freakishly enough i love PHOTOS of feet. especially when there are different sizes or shoes. its just an image i like-all of the legs and feet the focus of a photo. love it. its different, but just another portrait of a person. another part of them.
okay, so onto the contest. its actually going to be two parts. for the first part, i am going to post some of my favorite feet shots from the year. you guys will vote. winner gets their foot photo enlarged to 12×18 and printed on art canvas, ready to hang!
rules:
the photos corresponding number will be ON TOP of the image.
ONLY ONE VOTE PER PERSON. i can check IP addresses…so dont cheat. ill delete your cheating McCheater votes. :)
please vote in the comments of this post.
clients-feel free to have friends and family vote for your image!
i will take votes until friday morning, dec 14 at 8am PST.
second part-you guys are going to email me YOUR favorite foot image that you have taken this year. i will choose ten of my favorites, and post them here on my blog. make sure that feet are the focal point of the photo you send. the winner gets their foot image enlarged as 12×18 and printed on canvas!
same rules apply as above-with a few extra. make sure to pay attention to this information to make it as easy as possible for me to organize all of the entries!
your file HAS TO BE 400×600 pixels 72dpi (if it is a different size, it wont be counted)
please name your image file as your first initial, last name. (example: twhitney.jpg) again, if its not named that way it wont be counted.
you must have taken the photo
