Hey everyone,
Since there has not been a Cage Match in a while I thought I would throw this out. I was thinking of a photo montage cage match. Each contestant will shoot 3 photos and then using photshop incorporate them together into one photo.
Each picture would be of a different subject.
Subjects can be decided by contestants
Normal entry fees apply (10 credits)
5 days to complete, followed by a 2 day voting period.
Is anyone up for this??

Sounds like a great idea! I'd love to do it but sadly, I doubt if I'll have the time for it but I'm sure there's someone here who'll be able to do it.

I honestly wouldn't want to commit to it Newby, I have a lot on my plate at present.
[QUOTE=tcunningham158]can you explain this "montage" to me[/QUOTE]You create a new image from elements of the source images, there are several examples of this type in the past contests. They're also known as "collages".

Thanks Dave
Sounds like a good idea but I can't pull it off this week either. I'm pulling a 60 hour week with just enough time to sleep :(
Later we can revisit it though.

Let's say 2 of the photos have to be taken inside the time frame, the last can be from a past shoot. What do you think? :comedy:

Free-4-all on the photo subjects, keeping within the site's guidelines, is fine by me. Shall I list it?

Now, since your wife decided to spoil you with a new camera, our cameras are pretty much equal

You know what that means - It comes down to skill - :happy:
what is wrong with me - why must I compete with people way more skilled and talented them me? why???
:bang:

Well if it makes you feel happier I couldn't tell for sure which was yours and which was Silky's colorisation. :artist: They were both excellent.

Dave, You're sweet. Thank you. :kisses:
Yeah but now I'm in deep trouble with Silky :)
Happy

:grrr: Careful you don't want to dig a hole too deep that you can't get out of in a hurry.

Actually I think Happy did a FABULOUS job on her entry! I do think it's very obvious who did which entry though, simply because it's a style thing. When you do these types of images it's hard not to develop a certain style...a certain look to your images. Like burndog...I think I could pick out one of his images in a heartbeat, because they are always fantastic...and they always have that "burndog" look. :)
Happy...you know I love ya...but I have to say going up against you makes me VERY nervous. :)

I'm not certain who's is who's, but I have a suspicion based on style as you say. I had them both open on full view quite a while before figuing out who to give the edge to. That was a tough call! They're both excellent.

I agree - we do have our own styles - and yes going up against you is a VERY nerve wrecking experience. *hugs* I love ya too.
