Contest September 2018 P.o.m. - Cat Photos In Black And White

[mani]

Hello all you cat photographers extraordinaire!

We have something a little different this month:

Cats photographed in black and white only

Once upon a time we could only take photos in black and white and now we find that there is something rather atmospheric about them. So we decided to ask our members to use their artistic skills to produce a creative black and white shot. Our rules still apply (No special effects, borders, graphics or text on the pictures) but we decided to make this rather nostalgic exception - but just black and white please.


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .


The winner will receive a rather wonderful TCS T-shirt!

Prizes can be shipped worldwide


Submissions will be accepted for the next seven days.

Something to remember.. If you would like a heads-up on what the next topic will be, make sure you subscribe to the newsletter

The Rules:

1. Choose the best picture you have for our monthly theme and post it to this thread. Please mention the cat's name!
2. Image needs to be clear and not too small. 480 pixels high by 640 pixels wide minimum. Larger is better.
3. One submission per member please
   
4. No special effects, borders, graphics or text on the pictures. Announcement - Photo Editing For Contests - What's Allowed, And What's Not

Photos will not necessarily be monitored during the contest. If your photo fails to comply with the above rules we may have to exclude it from the voting stage.

Our cats are ALL amazingly beautiful! This friendly photo contest is about the way in which the cat is captured in the picture. We're not looking for professional photography, but do try to keep things like image quality, lighting and composition in mind.


Good luck everyone!

I only have one b&w photo, and it’s a photo of a photo that I took for a class back in ‘86.

Just to clarify, as I've had some questions:
You don't have to have an old black and white photo.. converting to B/W is pretty simple with whatever photo program you have.

Haha, I'm glad that's allowed because that's what I did! Thought I was being sneaky
