Canon Photo 5

Anyone entering the Canon Photo 5 competition this year?

I got my box of objects today...now just to think of some ideas....

My husband is, and one of my son's godfather's is as well. :) Our box arrived yesterday.

i signed up last week just waiting for my box. how long did urs take to get

I got mine within few days.

I entered last year and never got my box :( I wondered if it was because I said I had a Nikon camera!

LOL !! more than likely ;) Just put you have a Canon 400D or something like that rofl.

Love

Oooh....I've never heard of it!! I'm going to do it to! How fun.

Ooooh cool I so want to do it, I hadn't heard of it before. It's been closed now, but I've pre registered for next year ;)

Oh no, thanks for posting about it then Laranna! Looks like I just registered in time!

I haven't got my box yet either... I am already trying to think of things to photograph tho. I hope they don't discriminate Sam... I'm still working with my Sony!! LOL

As far as I know you can enter with any type of camera and this year they have two categories - one for amateurs and one for the pro's.

I asked Andrew as he is on a photography forum and heaps of ppl he knows that are in the Canon 5 comp have other cameras

Love

got my package today.
i have an idea for one of the items but the other no idea lol

I have NFI what I am going to do with the objects, I am stumped and I really want to win!!! 5D MarkII :pray::pray::pray: I have joined the Canon Photo5 group on Flickr and there are some amazing photos already taken so I am a little dismayed :(

Just look at lots of pics and shoot lots of pics and something will come to you. I have one that I am pretty happy with (ribbon) and another that I am not so happy with (umbrella).

How are you all going with this? I have entered 3 pics so far. I changed my umbrella one and have done the bubble one too.

I have an idea for my ribbon and perhaps the umbrella but thats as far as I have gotten. There is not enough time in a day to get things done :think:

I have no ideas yet. Haven't had time, but I'm getting into it this week! Need to do some thinking.

I have some ideas, just have to make some time to take the pics. :)

I see the gallery is up...

Anyone want to share pics?

Mine are in my blog, I should have tagged them all photo5 or canon. I think I happened upon yours Tanya. I love your bubble shot!!!

ETA I think there is a link to my Flickr in my links section of my blog, and that has my entries all together rather than in 3 different posts.

Well, I managed to get the bubbles and the umbrella done....stuck for ideas on the rest...

LMS - I like your crayon one..

Here's my Flickr

Awesome pics Tanya!! I love your bubble and candle ones the best. The bubble looks like a planet!

ETA: My pics are here

tanya those are great!
I wish I had known about this comp whilst it was still open. I`ll have to google and find out what it is and register for next year.

ETA - just looked at your too Larana. What sort of camera do you have? your pics are real nice.

Salsa - thx... my camera is an EOS 400D (canon).

Oh I wish I had remembered to enter... Doh. I'm going to kick myself up the bum so hard if I forget again next year.

Tanya, your work is beautiful. The bubble shot is exquisite, and I love your self portrait. So strong.

The entered candle shot is just lovely, the lighting works a treat, a perfect balance between definition and softness.

OMG what a dill I am!! Here I am trying to explain where I have a link to my Flickr and I just realised there is a link in my sig. I think I need to retire my brain, the last week has been scarey!!!

Great photos girls! I look forward to next year already!

Thanx girls, re the comments about my entries :) My original ideas were never anything like what I ended up with. There really are some nice pics in the comp...

i have enter as well waiting for my box , have some great ideas , best of luck everyone , hope some on this forum wins lol
