RFF Vivian Maier Photo Contest - REVISED RULES
OK Folks,
RFF will have a Vivian Maier Photo Contest!
Shoot in Vivian's style.
Winner will be determined by RFF member votes.
Vivian used high end equipment of her day, so I am guessing she would be shooting digital today. Analog or digital are acceptable.
She shot Rollei Twin Lens Reflex 2 1/4 and 35mm Leica (among other cameras) so square or rectangular, B/W or color.
Selfies in her style are definitely allowed, not that you have to dress the part.
Vivian Maier style means emulating her style of shooting as best you can. RFF will vote (one vote per member) on the best Vivian style photo.
Old pics or new pics. No smartphone pics.
You may enter up to 20 pics. Any photo deemed inappropriate for any reason will be removed.
New members may enter the contest. However their vote for the winner will not count unless they have made 20 posts in the forum.
One vote per member - so choose your vote carefully. No changes will be made if you inadvertently vote for the wrong pic. Members may not vote for themselves. Votes are anonymous. The top 10 vote getters will be rated per their number of votes. Lobbying for votes in this forum or any other public venue will get your photos disqualified.
All photos and their copyrights are owned by the photographer. However by entering the contest, members are agreeing to allow RFF to use your photo to advertise RFF contest results for free.
RFF reserves the right to change contest rules without notice if there is sufficient reason, however we will aim not to do so.
Entry Submission ENDS November 1st. 1st Round Voting begins Nov 2 and ends November 15th. If the number of entries is large, the top 20% of vote getters will move on to the 2nd round of voting November 16th to November 30th.
The Vivian Maier contest gallery is now open. Choose the Vivian Maier contest drop down menu from the Gallery Search HERE and upload your pics!
Entries must be uploaded to the RFF Gallery in the Vivian Maier Contest. Posting in this thread does NOT enter you into the contest. That is what the contest gallery is for.

Wow Stephen!!!
There's an incentive to get out and shoot! Thank you Stephen for making the best photography forum on the web (in my view) even better.
May I ask: can anyone enter this contest? I doubt I'll enter personally, but it would be nice to see it go to a member who has been here longer than five minutes.
Cheers,
Brett

I would enter for fun and to encourage others to enter, but would be totally fine with winning a Rollei.

You wouldn't keep a designo masterpiece just for the beauty of it?

Are there any specific requirements for the size of the uploaded photographs?

Besides altruism, is there any reason you wouldn't keep the camera?
I figure I would at least shoot it to see if it was worth keeping over my C330 and Yashica 635.

The bad news is that it only works if you're wearing a frumpy outfit and a floppy hat and clunky shoes.
