We recognize that across the world people are entering all sorts of seasons right now...which is why this isn't just about Autumn. You can utilise any season you want - and if you're extra creative, how about combining all four into one image?
The idea of a Seasonal Portraiture Contest is for you to experiment and explore whatever season you happen to be in right now - through portraiture photography! The contest is open to all categories within the People and Portrait Photography Gallery:
Artistic Nude
Fetish
Fashion
Expressive
Emotive
Infants and Children
Weddings
Spontaneous
Pinup
Glamour
Body Art
Classic
Cosplay
Miscellaneous
Self
Rules:
Entries must be Photography with minimal manipulation
One entry per person
You must link to the contest in your comments to show you've read the rules!
Entries must follow the theme of Seasons - interpret that how you wish but entries that do not appear to follow a theme will be removed from the contest.
Keep an eye on PeopleAndPortraits for updates and news on the contest and results.
Entries must have been created in 2012 - keep it fresh!
Mature content must be clearly marked.
It would be helpful if you can identify what seasons you are capturing - if it's not easily recognizable.
