July 2012 : IOM
« on: July 07, 2012, 08:06:40 PM »
Please post your Image of the Month entries for July 2012 here....

IOM Rules:

1. Objects are to be captured and processed entirely by the user. Equipment on loan to a user is allowed providing the rig is setup and aligned by the user and the target is acquired, framed, focused and captured by the user. Internet and/or rent-a-scope remote imaging services are not allowed.

2. Data acquired 90 days prior to the challenge deadline may be used to create the entry.

3. Images are to be posted to the corresponding monthly thread with max dimensions of 800 by 800 pixels.

4. Images must be in jpeg format and may not exceed 1 Megabyte in file size.

5. The contest will run from the 1st of the month to the last of the month and submissions are due by 11:59pm est.

6. Once an image has been posted to the Image of the Month thread, it is considered final and can not be modified in any way. Unless you are instructed to resize your image by a moderator. In that event, you can resize it, but may not perform any other processing on the data.
Clear Skies,
David
