Shutterbug Society; Activity #4; Faceless Portraits

[ed1nburgh.livejournal.com]

Activity: Faceless Portraits
Points: 1st/2nd/3rd/Participation Only = 50/40/30/10 points; 2 points for voting.
Dates: Entries accepted NOW until Monday, July 19 2010 at 22:00 PDT (Timezone Converter Here!). Voting will follow immediately after until July 21 2010.

Details: Take a portrait of a person that does not show their face. This means no closeups of eyes or lips--absolutely little to no facial features may be included. Focus on different body parts to get across the portrait--be creative!

Your submission should be no larger than 600 pixels on the widest side.

Also, please use minimal editing on your photos. You can edit the contrast/levels/curves, saturation (making it black and white is acceptable, as is slightly boosting the saturation) but that is all. If you do more editing than this, your entry will be disqualified.

Textbox for submissions!

Questions here!

If the head can be seen in the picture but no part of the face is revealed, is the picture allowed? I mean, for example, if the person has turned around, or if there is hair in their face, etc. Thank you in advance for replying!

If the person is turned around, that is perfectly acceptable. I'd prefer that over hair-covering-the-face, but if you do that and no features are visible, that is also acceptable.

Hope that helps!

Can it be a self portrait?

[ed1nburgh.livejournal.com]

Yes! As long as you aren't recognisable.

Hiii!! <3. Can the person have something covering her face, like a piece of white paper?
Thank you, honey ♥

[ed1nburgh.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's totally fine, just as long as no facial features are visible. :].

Can an ear be visible?

Yep! An ear is totally fine.

Lol, I am made of fail. *remembers her stamping problem*. Why is it my entry invalid? Too Small? Sorry -_-

[ed1nburgh.livejournal.com]

I believe that your entry is on there, at least, I see it. Can you not see it? That's very strange!
