Greetings Valued Members, Its time to show your skillz!! Lets have some fun and PLAY!! OK for this POTM, the Category would be of all FH and HYBRIDS strains! Yes Parrots are included. The objective of POTM is to have fun interacting with your fish, learning another aspect of the hobby, competing, and having fun as a family. Requirements for JULY 2010 POTM consists off: - ONE entry per person, .......... Staff and Team Members are encouraged. - ONE FH or HYBRIDS strains that is of your likings.. it must be your camera skills and also must be your fish. - 2 Pictures a MUST ( one left/ right picture of the fish). - Fish size could be of ONLY from 1 inch to no more than 5 inch ranged ( from tip to tip!) - Pictures need to be EMAILED to: FlowerHornRUs@aol.com Pictures will be posted on the poll section for ALL to see and vote at deadline. The deadline to send in pics for this exciting contest is Now to 7-22-2010 no later than 12am Pacific Time . Votings will conclude the Winner for the next 10 days. One TOP winner will be announced shortly after. There will be 5 judges selected from the forum. Points are going as each judges contain 10% Total member's vote on poll 50% which will give a total of 100% Judges are anonymous, and could not participate! The Pictures will be posted on the POLLS forum for viewing and voting. Just like one of Recent ones.. http://flowerhornrusforum.com/topic/8234430/ Prize will consist of: FREE world wide shipping!! * a choice of ONE original or red 550G GS!!  or  * 85G RainONE Freeze Dried Shrimp  * one stick on thermo reader  * 1-6 Suction Cups  * 1 bottle of pazil pro  * An award placed under their screen name. * The chance to change your MEMBER TITLE!! * Your name will be on the Hall of Fame. here are some guidelines on what to look for when snapping some shots. 1) Fish should be healthy and in top condition. 2) Distractions other than subject fish should be eliminated or kept to a minimum (other fish, date-time stamps, tank equipment etc.). 3) Fish photographed should be in focus. Out of focus background is ok (depth of field limits) as long as subject is in focus. 4) Fish blurry by movement should be avoided. 5) Framing should include the whole fish in a natural pose. To cut-off the rear of fish detracts from overall picture balance. 6) Tank should be clean (algae, watermarks, etc.), specially the glass you are photographing through. 7) Camera lens should be clean. 8) Photo quality should be good. Observe how whole picture is composed, should be in harmony and pleasant to the observers eyes. 9) Light balance should be natural, not overtly blue or red. 10) Flash and other reflections should be avoided. Good luck!! Lets have some fish FUN!! feel free to Pm, email or call me ask if any. best regards, vanz aka paintsn Edited by FlowerHornRus, Jul 12 2010, 08:13 PM.
