This is where we will have a photo contest on a theme each month! It will run October through September, with a creation of a calendar featuring the winner of each month! So that everyone can have a chance to be featured, if you win one month, you will not be eligible to win another month during the year.
October - Halloween: tricks, treats, settings, decorations, costumes, whatever means Halloween to you!!
Here are all the themes:
*****************************************
October - Halloween (or Howloween)
November - Thanksgiving Feast (or Thankful)
December - Holidays (or Howlidays)
January - Sung As A Bug (or napping)
February - Love (or My Favorite Things or Best Friends or Odd Couples)
March - Pet Shaming (or Mischief Managed or Busted)
April - Angels
May - Out And About
June - Working Pets (or jumping)
July - Close Ups
August - Bath Time (or Sunbathing)
September - Toys
************************************
We encourage you to be creative!! For example, if you want to go with jumping for June, but you have a dog on the lazy side, maybe it "jumps to conclusions!"
We also encourage you to include captions with your photos!!
A few guidelines for the photo contest ...
* Pets only in the photos. No people. (We will have one special month for family! This will be the month for the Howlidays, or, December.)
* Landscape orientation is preferred, but not required. So photos that are wider than they are tall are best.
* Each pet can win first place only once per year, but you are eligible for second and third place still. No limitations on those.
* One photo per pet for voting per month. We encourage you to submit extra for viewing only and for an extended version calendar with extra pages with all the submissions and extras. Submit as many as you like for viewing only. If submitting more than one photo, please indicate which one is for voting.
* First place submissions should have a minimum width of 1000 pixels. Smaller photos can end up looking very pixelated and may not be large enough for the printed calendar. Smaller photos might still work for second or third place photos and will certainly work for extras/extended version calendar.
* Voting - one vote per month per household please.
* Submit entries until the last day of the month. Voting will be the week after. We will set up a survey monkey for voting. The link will be posted.
* We will post all the pictures on Pippi's website with a link to it to make it easier to view and vote. Here is the link: rushing-grove.com/gofido/calendar/index.html
