August Countdown Thread August July Countdown Thread: Welcome to the August Countdown Thread. Hi all! Please join us and share one or two of your favorite photos from last month. There are so many fabulous photo posted on BP. So many very inspiring works of time and talent. I like this thread because its purpose is for each of us to show case your individual photo that you believe is your best or that you feel is most representative of your inner self. So... let's see your personal best! *If you are a regular here you know what to do. **If you are new to this thread, take some time to read our helpful hints below and join in the fun. *** If you found yourself here because you are lost.... Hmmm.., Don't worry, this is not the Hotel California, you can escape! Some helpful hints for attaching photos into a BP Forum Thread, if you're unfamiliar with the process: 1) Sign into BP. IF YOU HAVEN'T entered the Contest for today, you can use the "Photo ID" method to pull an existing image (from your Member Center) into your reply here. a. Jot down the PhotoID # of the photo you wish to share. To determine your PhotoID, go to the little Pancakes icon, then click “My Photos”, then “Manage/Enter.” The PhotoID is right below the number. b. Go to the Countdown Contest thread. Click “Respond” at the bottom of the page. c. Type in whatever you wish; e.g., “Here’s my Fav image for the month.” d. Click the “Select” button below the text input box, and select “1.” Toggle on “Notify” box if you wish to be notified. Click “Submit.” e. The Image Uploader appears. On the right-hand side, you’ll see an input box for the PhotoID (from step 1a). Type it in then click “submit your photo.” Then, return to the forum thread and you’ll see your photo. 2) IF YOU HAVE ALREADY entered the Contest for today, you can't use the Photo ID method *today*. Either wait until tomorrow to reply here first, or upload a copy of the image (from your PC) and attach to this thread. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery. 3) If you're uploading a duplicate, I suggest titling it "For Forum" so it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later on. This can also help nudge BP viewers to go find the original image in your gallery, if they want to leave a comment. Likewise, if you want to add a comment to a photo seen here, first try to tell if it is a duplicate upload. As a courtesy, try to find the original image in the member's gallery and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate... which may one day be deleted. Errick

On the Wings of Heaven This one just speaks to me. Entered into the monthly theme. I had quite a few entries into the theme but this is the image I first thought of when monthly theme was announced. Atlantic

Thanks for hosting, Errick - I'm enjoying your long-exposure, almost abstracted beach series... My favorites are likely no surprise - "Scowl" is a cathedral element which I had fun working out how to get a good shot through a chain-link fence, since the lens would not fit through a gap in the fence. "Supreme Spiral" is a staircase I've shot before, but never wider than 16mm before this.

Of your two favorites, Errick, I have to go with "On the Wings of Heaven". The flow and colors of "Atlantic" are lovely, but "Heaven" is truly inspirational - and a wonderful fit for the Monthly Theme. I do hope that's where you entered it. Thank you for all your comments on the images offered by everyone in this thread. I am hoping others will take a look at and offer their thoughts on yours in return :)

So glad you cleared that up, Chris. I would seriously have been spending a lot of time in Errick's gallery trying to find oven shots :) Congratulations to all who got SF's, whether on their favorites posted here or on other of their entries. And good luck as Jim moves on through . . .

(It's kind of bizarre: If you click on the Finalists link for this month's contest---and choose a category---all the photos have either gold badges or SF badges!)

Here's the link Cary was referring to: http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/dynoGall2.php?catID=67538&mem4gall=0 It's as if the SFs were presented to the judge(s) for the golds.
