Announcing the October 2012 photo theme challenge - Birds and People (1 Viewer)

A slight rearrangement in themes. It is proposed to have Digiscoping as next months theme challenge instead.

The theme challenge this month is - 'Birds and People'

Your entry must contain a bird and some obviously artificial object or interaction with a person(s). This can be anything as long as the bird(s) is wild and it is shown in conjunction with a person or a human-made object. e.g. on a bird table, telegraph pole, fence post, house roof, sidewalk, pylon etc.

The rules must be adhered to in order to avoid disqualification.

The Moderators decision is final.

Rules –

1. Entry to have been taken in the last twelve months i.e. since 1st October 2011.
2. Date taken to be included in the entry - must at least include month and year.
3. Entry to be uploaded between now and October 20th midnight.
4. Your entry must contain a bird or birds that are obviously involved with a person or artificial object.
5. The bird must be wild and can be of any species.
6. Location taken to be included and must include at least the county/state and country.
7. One entry per member.
8. Only minor image adjustment is permitted, such as cropping, sharpening, contrast, and levels. The photo must not be otherwise greatly manipulated ie. objects should not be added / removed in order to enhance the shot - no composite images.
9. Once uploaded a photo is classed as an entry and cannot be replaced by another shot. However, you have until the closing date / time of this competition to ensure that your entry meets criteria.
10. The entry must be your own work and not previously submitted in a competition on this site.
11. The bird's common name must be given - though please add the scientific too!
12. Entries to be uploaded directly by entrants to the Monthly Photo Competitions Gallery .

A voting booth will be posted after the closing date.
