It's that time of the year again. We like winter scenes, snow, Christmas, whatever suites you. I say conjure because this contest will have one special rule. You will be allowed to edit your picture with a photo application, commonly referred to as "photo magic". You are not required to do so, you can submit a winter scene "as-is", unretouched. But let's say, like me, you live in Arizona and around here, winter looks like any other time of the year. :rolleyes: Well, you'll be allowed to add snow, smoke, people or even change backgrounds.

One thing I ask, when you post your entry, you need to tell us if the photo has been altered. Why? you ask, well, I am thinking that dependent on the response, we may want to judge the "magic" and the "non-magic" entries separately.

The rules:
  • The photo must have been taken by the one that enters it
  • The photo must be of a winter scene and have something to do with the railroad, an engine, a car, a depot... something.
  • You may use photo editing tools to add or change things including the background. Notice, you may, but this is not a requirement.
  • One entry per person, and specify if the photo has been altered or not.
  • The picture can be from any layout or diorama or the real world.
  • All other general photo contest rules apply.
  • This contest will close on Dec 15th.
  • As usual, no prizes will be awarded except the pride in knowing you entered the contest and that's worth a lot.:D
Good luck
