----READ THIS FIRST!----
Since this round requires some editing skill... If anyone wants or needs help turning a photo to black and white (or sepia) - ASK! Either PM the photo to me or DR.C (I just volunteered him [ddd) or even post your pic in this submission thread and ask for help here.

Quick and Dirty Rules: (should cover most of it unless you're editing)
----------------------------
***All entries must be a photo taken by you*** no matter how long ago.
Please, no bigger than 1024x1024 pixels. At least 500 pixels one direction.
There is very limited photo editing allowed. (see RULES thread)
Post up to 3 pics. One will be considered.
Amateurs only.
There is a Theme restriction. (see below)
No profanity, pets, or people. (Spectators in the background, etc. are OK)

***If anyone needs HELP resizing, editing a pic, or help how to use camera functions - ask right here in this thread.***

Full RULES can be found here: RULES
If you don't read them, don't be upset if your pic is disqualified.

THEME: Black and White or Sepia
------------
When I was a kid we didn't have all these fancy colors, we had black and white and sepia. That was it. ....and we were darn glad to have them! So this round is about that classic old time look. Or is it about that gritty raw look? That artsy look? Anyhow, I was hoping one of the judges would choose this theme because the subject matter is open. So take a pic of what you want and give it that retro feel. Or maybe step outside the box and take a pic of something like an old cop car or a wide white wall....those are black and white. Right?



This is Rat Rods Rules, but we're not just about rats, so if it's got wheels, had wheels, is related to wheels, or is around your shop, it might be worth a picture.

Ready....

GO!!!

I know right? Russian Purses!!!! [cl[cl

I figured for a 6 month long contest, it better have some cool stuff.

I'm just glad Bonehead and JFG agreed to help me out. And a big thanks for going way beyond what I asked for.
Both are awesome guys!

Great start, guys! [cl

Thanks for volunteering me, Sam. :rolleyes: (I stand behind you and will definitely help if anybody needs it.)



I wish this shot wasn't so "grainy" but I guess it should be, considering where it comes from...
