Welcome to Farktography!
This Week's Theme: "The Camera Made Me Do It"
Description
: We all take photos of stuff that is just..odd. Stuff that 'normal people' don't notice and certainly wouldn't photograph. We take these pics because photography is on the front-burner. And some of them just might work. This should be the place to show the stuff you shoot that no one sees otherwise.
We ask that before submitting your photos you read and adhere to the following submission
rules
, including but
not
limited to the following:
- Submissions must be photographs; screen captures do not count as photographs.
- You must be the original photographer of your entry. Do not submit anyone else's photography as your own.
- You are only allowed to enter a photograph once. Do not submit the same photo to another contest later.
- You may enter 3 photos in each contest as long as each photo is of a different composition.
- Please post each photo separately so they can be voted for individually.
Ideally, your photograph should be presented as taken, with as little alteration as possible either digitally in-camera or in your image editor during post-processing. No selectively applied digital effects! No removal or addition of image elements, no spot treatments, and no HDR images, please.
With few exceptions (red-eye removal, sensor or scan dust removal), modifications to the original photograph must be made evenly across the image.
See the
rules
for more information on acceptable modifications, or check in at the
Farktography Forums
.
Legal:
All photographers submitting photos to this contest are the legal copyright holders for the photos submitted and the photos are not to be considered free for any other use without written consent from the submitting photographers.
To have your photo website listed on the Farktography home page, please send your Fark username and url to admin(at)farktography.net and we'll get you up forthwith. (also, indicate if you're willing to share your photographs for use as source images in PhotoShop contests)

Farktography Forum

I dunno. Something about the juxtaposition of the fluidity of the woman against the linearity of the wall was fascinating.

left out through 3 months Az summer monsoons,
specifically to see if I could make an interesting picture with it.
The camera really made me do it. Win? Fail? You decide.

It sucks when your camera makes you lie down in the snow to get a shot.

This is the first picture I took after getting my Nikon D200. Riding the SkyTrain home, I just started fooling with it around at the front of the train. I'm sure a few people wondered what I was up to.

we don't have snow here, but my camera has made me lie on wet ground and in the mud, so I kinda feel your pain. ;)

I am a sucker for textures. Wandering around the site of Ft. Casey on Whidbey Island, I was drawn in by the lines and colours on this otherwise bare concrete wall.
