Monthly Wapiti Talk Photo Contest - October 2017

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 10 04, 2017 •  [Post 1]

The October 2017 Photo Theme is – "Freestyle". Post up one of your favorite outdoor themed photos.
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 prize for October's contest is to be determined.

Bayed like one of my hounds and treed this cat, her sister, and their mother. The young ones stopped only 6 feet up a tree and let me walk right up to them and get some one of a kind photos.

few years ago in Alaska, on our way back to town with a load of urchins, we decided to sport fish a few minutes and see if we could catch "dinner" I caught what ended up to be a few dinners :D

I would have liked to post a picture of my wife and me checking out a new wall tent, but I do not have that picture yet for some reason. I can probably get one of her shopping at the mall. If it was Mrs. Swede passing in front of the Eddie Bauer store, would that count? :D

The best part of this picture is the hunt that surrounded it. It was Wyatt's first hunt of any kind. He missed his first dozen shots and turns to me and says, "Dad, this is SOOO fun!". A few shots later, this green winged teal fell from the sky and the excitement level was so contagious! To top it all off? My new yellow lab made her first duck retrieve on his first duck!
