Monthly Wapiti Talk Photo Contest - April 2017 - WINNER!

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 04 05, 2017 •  [Post 1]

April's Photo Theme is – "Sunrise or Sunset". Post up one of your favorite photos that show a sunrise or sunset theme (I know we all have a few of these ;) ...).

Rules:

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.
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.

* At the end of the year, all monthly contest winners will be automatically entered into a Photo of the Year Contest.

The best photo (as voted by the WT members) will be one of the coveted Wapiti Talk Decals.

Summer sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean. We'd been up for hours - but that one boat beat us out to the fishing spot that morning:

Ketchikan sunset, it got up to 88 degrees that day, that was my last day up there, we took the day off of work and sport fished all day....the sunset was a perfect cherry on top of that day.

Beautiful! December snow contrast.
