retrospectiv
Are  you a shutterbug with an eye for life's little details? How low are you willing to go to get your photos published on this ultra-cool site? Retrospectiv editors require that all images submitted are taken at a maximum height of 30 cm from terra firma. That's right, take it lying down, squatting, or kneeling -- just get down to the ground somehow. The goal is to pay attention to the minutae that surrounds us all the time. Of course, you should exercise sound judgment while snapping your image. The site advises you to stay away from streets and moving cars, use a rotating lens and camera body, and if you have to lie down on the wet cold ground, bring a blanket for protection. But if you snap the photo any higher than a sliver under foot, it won't make the cut. Be warned: The editors check for images doctored via Photoshop, so don't even think about it. Instead, join other intrepid photogs who've heeded the rules and captured enough amazing images to fill up 14 editions. Happy snapping! (in Photography Exhibits) |
