Photography Challenge: People Without a Face

**Cricket** · Share | #1 (**permalink**) 04-19-2008, 07:06 PM

This challenge inolves a photograph of a person that does not show their face, but still tells a story. (Examples at the end of this post.) Show us your best three photographs of people that does not show their face.

In order to post your entry for this challenge, we do ask that you use the V7N thumbnail option available to upload your photos. The full size image must be no larger than 450 pixels wide.

The People Without a Face challenge will run for two weeks, ending the night of May 3, 2008. At that point, I will choose (along with the help of a V7N moderator) the top three entries. I will post the winning entries on my Digital Photography Tips blog, along with a link to each winner's website.*

Your entry must be a photograph that you have taken, using a digital camera. Do not enter a photograph taken by someone else or scanned from a film print. Ideally, it will be a new shot that you have taken specifically for this challenge.

We will be holding multiple challenges over the coming weeks. You may participate in as many challenges at the same time as you choose to.

I'd like to get in on this one if possible. I came up with a funny idea last night (;

When you say, Best Three Photographs, do you mean seperate subject or can it be the same thing, done three different ways?

It can be the same subject done three different ways.

It was hard to decide which 3 as I had 6 that I could upload. Anyway, here you go...

suzjor · #13 (**permalink**) 04-25-2008, 11:40 AM

I just realized 2 kind of show some face. Anyway, I have some more if those don't work for the contest.

Things to keep in mind when you submit your entries for the challenges.

- You may have a maximum of 3 photo entries per challenge.
- Your full size image must not be wider than 450 pixels.
- We do ask that you use the V7N thumbnail feature.

Although it is not a requirement, we did mention that ideally your entries will be new shots that you have taken specifically for this challenge. This will be taken into account when the winners are selected.

Cricket the 450px wide, does that mean 450 max height & width or just width?

I know stupid question, becuase you said 450 wide but I just want to clarify.

gammaRascal · #19 (**permalink**) 04-26-2008, 02:51 PM

Okay here are mine.

I took the long way around so it's a bit of a departure from the rest. Maybe a literal departure... I don't know. But boy did I have a time doing them (:

I am referring only to the width of the image. Thanks for asking.

BTW - I love your entries!
