MM Photo Competition Round 2: Disposable Cameras

It's over.  The votes from our distinguished group of judges are in.  This just gets to show that there are some creative minds on MM who are not restricted by equipment.  This is creativity at its most restricted, and its finest.  Thanks to everyone who submitted and all the judges who volunteered their time and expertise.

So here are the results, remember, these images are all shot with nothing but a single-use camera with no external flashes or lighting equipment:

Third place...

Brian Diaz with Katie - fun, eh?

Second place...I wonder how many could even do this with fancy equipment.  Just beautiful.

To repost what I said in the other thread just in case any one missed it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Good luck to those who submitted. Since the submissions will be posted on thebokeh.com after the winner and runners ups are announced, I would request the 5 who submitted to this contest contact me with permission to host the said images, and to provide a name/link to acompany the images. Would expect this page to be ready least a week from when lll announces the votes. Basically the winner will get the highlight at the top of the page and whatever little information the winner would like to provide and what not. The rest of you guys will get honerable mentions with the smaller version of your submission shown below the winning spot in the order they ranked. I figured since theres only 5 actual people who submitted it cant hurt to have those who didnt win least get shown as honerable mentions.

So the to-be-winner knows ahead of time, for the two rolls of medium format film, your choices are...

Kodak Ektachrome 50 Tungsten
Kodak Ektachrome 64 Daylight
Kodak Ektachrome 200 Daylight (if i can find it)
Kodak Verichrome Pan B&W
Kodak Vericolor II (120 or 220)
Kodak Ultra Color 400UC (in 220)
Kodak TriX 400
*All the kodaks except the ultracolor are from the 80s or slightly earlier.

Fuji Velvia 100F
Fuji Velvia 50
Fuji Provia 400F
Fuji Provia 100F
*All the fuji have been expired for about a year but refrigerated the whole time

And if so desired 1 roll of MF Film can be instead substituted with two bulk loaded 35mm canisters (approx 24 exposures each) with Kodak UltraTec

Here is an example of what I shot on Kodak UltraTec
http://www.karlblessing.com/shares/ultr … um_v6s.jpg

Its rated at about ISO 10, I shoot it at ISO 6, and develop it in HC-110 (dil.B) for about 3 to 4 minutes at 68F/20C, its also an Orthochromatic film (not sensitive to red light, can be used under a safelight)

But I'm gona bet the winner isnt gona wana hassle with the UltraTec *Evil Grin*
