February 2020 Photo of the Month Contest

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 01 29, 2020 •  [Post 1]

The February 2020 Photo Theme is – "Back in the Day”. Let’s see some old time photos.

1. One photo submission allowed per month, per member (yep, MODs may enter a photo also).
2. Photo must relate to the monthly theme (or risk being disqualified).
3. Do not use photo editing software to enhance your photo. Just post the photo as it was taken with your camera, smart phone, trail cam, etc. You may have to resize some photos so they are accepted by the forum software; remember, photos can only be 800X600 pixels "MAX" for our forum.
4. You may use older photos you have on hand, but, do not submit a photo that has won a previous WT photo contest.
5. Any WT member may enter a photo they have taken or star in.
6. Judging – WT members will vote on monthly photo submissions.
7. Contest period will normally end the last day of the month.
8. Winner must contact WapitiTalk1 via PM and provide mailing address for prize (your prize may be sent directly from a WT sponsor or from RJ).
9. Prizes will vary from month to month.
10. All monthly winners will be automatically entered into the "photo of the year" contest.

The prize for the February contest is (to be determined).

I don't believe I'm old enough to qualify for this event.

Not my photo, but a photo of me. My first steelhead caught plunking on the mighty Snohomish River. Way back in the day when there were steelhead to catch in our local rivers. :(

That's funny! RI posted a black and white pic off the web of a frontier woman by her cabin, I Think she had shot a big buck, or was otherwise toting an old lever gun.
