February 2014 Photo Contest​

Love is in the air, every sight and every sound and during this month of the year we give ourselves over to the ideal of love and all it's magic. It is only fitting that we include our tortoises in the heartfelt time filled with love, romance, hearts and flowers.

The rules​

1) Only one submission per member.
2) The photo must have been taken by the submitter.
3) Each photo must have atleast one living tortoise in it and no animal may be harmed in taking the photo.
4) No photo-shopped or altered photos are allowed.
5) Submissions may only be made to the email address of: [email protected]
6) When making your submission please give the following information:
a) email title should read: February Photo Contest 2014
b) on the entry be sure to include:
* your name in the forum
* your tortoise(s) name(s) if they have one.
* tortoise(s) species
* a comment about your picture would be nice too.
7) A photo once it has won, can not be used again in the monthly photo contest, but may be entered in the yearly calender photo contest. A photo may however be used for more then one month, if it meets the theme.
8) We will not change how your photo appears when entered. Be sure you not only meet the theme requirements, but that your photo appears as you want it to be judged.
9) Once submission time is up, a thread showing all entries will be made. It is up to each submitter to check that their photo is showing. If it is missing, the submitter needs to PM Jacqui about the problem so it can be fixed. Once the voting thread is open to votes, no changes may be made.
10) This is open to both turtles and tortoises.

Theme​

Love is in the air!​

This can include those pictures of tortoises breeding, tortoise(s) with hearts some where in the picture, just let your imagination run wild.

Love is in the air
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea
And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name​

I think Jacqui just makes them up as she goes along, but tries to keep it sort of like what the month has going for it. So, for March we might suggest "In like a lion, out like a lamb" or "March Madness". Make some suggestions. I'll bet she gets tired trying to find new and exciting ideas.

 

[T33's Torts]

I vote March Madness! I have a great idea.

I am thinking if Dawndy can get a photo of Tyrone making sweet, sweet love to his rock, she's a shoo-in.. lol!

I never give advance warning.

 

[T33's Torts]

FINE THEN. I'll wait 'patiently'.
You'll be bugged. For sure
Hahaha I'm mostly kidding.
I have a birthday themed one.

Well, I must say, I'm really disappointed in February's turn-out. February was a really good month for picture opportunities and we only had TWO entries in the contest???? What gives?

 

[tortoisetime565]
