Low light in the spotlight

I figured we would kick September off early with a fun photo contest. We had such a great time with the pet contest a few months ago that I’m sure you’re going enjoy this one too.   September’s contest is all about low light outdoor photography.   The contest is simple, all you need to do is submit your best sunrise, sunset or night  photograph.

The steps are simple.

1. Become a fan of Batdorff Photography on Facebook.  Click on this link HERE.
2. Go to the Wall tab.  Type in your name in the box that reads “Write something” and directly under that box click on attach photo and upload your favorite contest photo.
3. Make sure to label your entry as either a sunrise, sunset or night shot (just in case I can’t tell the difference)
4. Make sure to comment on other people’s photos…but remember this is for fun!

The rules are simpler

1. Don’t post photos you did not take because it’s just not cool, and potentially illegal.
2. Multiple entries are allowed. The same photo can NOT be used in more than one category.
3. The photo must be taken outdoors.
4. International entries are welcomed!  Yeah, my Mexico fans!
5. Entries must be uploaded by September 9th.
6. All entries need to be labeled as either sunrise, sunset or night shot.  (photographs not labeled or described as such in the title will not qualify)
7. The winning entries will be announced on September 15th!
8. All winning entries will be posted on my blog with some honorable mentions.  Remember to comment on those that you like, as I do take that into consideration!
9. Winners must contact me via the blog in order to claim their prize.

The prizes rock:

• Best Sunset ($50.00 gift certificate)
• Best Sunrise  ($50.00 gift certificate)
• Best Night ($50.00 gift certificate)

The $50.00 gift certificate is to your choice of either a B&H Photo or Calumet Photo.

In addition to the prize, you’ll get some props when I post your award winning photo on my blog site.

I’ll plan on announcing the winners  September 15th, on my blog and via text messaging (available on the right column of my blog)

If you have questions regarding the contest please leave a comment on my blog.

One last thing,  it’s my hope to make this contest larger than the last so I need your help.  If you could spread the word, Re-tweet  if you use  Twitter , Facebook  fans please share the post on your Wall or suggest my page to your friends for the rest of you  simply suggest my blog to your friends.

I wish everyone the best and remember to have fun!
