Photo contest anyone?

[Coindude]

I think if we only allowed people who post on this board, it would be a very very short list!!

.... and I'd actually have a chance of winning!

 

(Just kidding about the above regarding "ATS".)

UPDATE!!!

 

The subject has arrived on the eastern seaboard! Krypto currently has it in his hands and will soon be forwarding it on to Jason. This is moving along rather nicely. I guess we're getting good at these contests!!!

Just got the package, and I want to say thank you very much for your kind present, Sam. A nicely toned proof Barber quarter for Christmas

[Coindude]

wrong thread! That was your contest! Hope you have fun with it during your short ownership of the item. I'll be forwarding you the next contestants address!

[Bruceswar]

If not to late I will toss my hat into the ring... Add me in at the end if you would. It can be the last stop before going back to you. Maybe I can get something worthwhile!

[Coindude]

Update as to where the coin is and adding a new contestant.

Last I heard, Jason had it and it should be headed toward Mr. Struck, aka Sir Broad.

[Bruceswar]

Hey maybe this time I can place in the top 15 someplace!

[robec1347]

Welcome stranger!! Where have you been Bruce?

[Bruceswar]

Welcome stranger!! Where have you been Bruce?

 

 

Lots of Sports photography... and life catching up to me.. Lucky for me I got some time now and should be around more.

 

 

[robec1347]

Nice shot!! It's great to have you back Bruce.

[Bruceswar]

Nice shot!! It's great to have you back Bruce.

 

Thanks! Literally about 60,000 or more photos from this football season. I am worn out a bit!

[Schatzy]

Welcome Back Bruce!!

Reminds me of one of my favorite ways to phrase my goals: I fully expect to be in the top 95%. 95%! That's pretty good, ain't it?

 

[physics-fan3.14]

Well, I just finished with the coin, and it will be on its way to Broadstruck tomorrow.

 

I've gotta say, in hand it looks a whole lot nicer than the PR-60 that ANACS gave it. I'm guessing it would upgrade today to at least a 63, despite some soft hairlines on the obverse. What say you people who have had it?

 

I'll also say, I stumbled upon some really good pictures, so y'all are gonna have to bring it to beat me

[Coindude]

I'm glad you agree that the coin is undergraded. Anyhow, believe me, a couple of people who had it in hand were impressed with it... one in particular!! Before it left my hands, it already had a new home, now it has a new new home!!

[Bruceswar]

btw can someone else besides messydesk win this time?

[Coindude]

You think I should "MESS" with his photos!!

[messydesk]

You think I should "MESS" with his photos!!

Thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure I booby trap them. Maybe an exploding dye packet that will rain magenta pixels all over your monitor. Just got a "shipped" message from Broadstruck. The coin should arrive here while I'm at the FUN show.

[Coindude]

No problem, that's just the way the ball rolls sometimes. Looking forward to seeing your results.

shocked goodman is not in on this one...

[Coindude]

I talked with him about it. He said he's very busy at the moment. I'm not shocked but sad that he didn't decide to jump in on this.

[fishfinder]

impressive list of photo peeps and your 15...I like your your aspirations (thumbs u

[physics-fan3.14]

I would be perfectly happy finishing behind that impressive list of paparazzi.

[James_OldeTowne]

As I've stated before, 95% is pretty awesome. I'd love to score in the top 95%.

[Coindude]

I will not be in the running, but I do want to shoot pics with my new setup. The results so far have been impressive to say the least. Once you see the coin in hand, I think for one, you'll be shocked it's a 60 and when you see the pictures you'll be surprised at everyone's interpretations. Everyone captured multiple attributes of the coin and it's interesting to see in which direction the bar shift is on showing off the coin. At this point, I think it's just a matter of how many attributes you can show at once. And, believe me, there will be people who get a lot of votes in the end that you'll be surprised by. All in all, this contest has been very pleasing, has gone very timely, the contestants have been very cordial and have not taken too much time. Overall, it's been a great experience.
