SUBMISSION THREAD for the Nov/Dec Photo Contest. Theme: Celebrating.

[Cassandra]

The submission thread will close at 8:00 p.m. EST on December 3rd or whenever thirty photos have been submitted, whichever comes first.

Preliminaries will be posted in GD December 4th-6th.

Finals will be posted in GD December 7th-9th.

BASIC CONTEST/CHALLENGE RULES:

Only one entry per person. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of a contest/challenge. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. (This title will be used for the winner's thread only, and not be part of the polling threads.) The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments. The Host will usually start a separate thread just for comments.

Please try to keep your photograph entry no larger than 800 pixels in its longest dimension and under 200K in file size. If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing, just ask.

The winner of the contest agrees to host the next month's contest (or recruit someone else to host the contest), and pick the next month's theme. Typically the winners have not been able to enter a photograph in the next contest. Be sure to read the following before you enter a photograph. (NOTE: The terms in this paragraph do not apply to Seasonal Contests.)

Neither Demopedia and/or a linked Gallery may use any photograph submitted for any purpose other than to display the photograph being submitted by the entrant, and neither gains any real or implied ownership rights to the photograph.

An entrant can disclaim this Contest License and retain all rights to the photograph. If an entrant wishes to disclaim the Contest License they must include the following statement in the post containing their photograph; "I disclaim the Contest License, and reserve all rights to my photograph" Any photograph submitted by an entrant with this disclaimer statement will not be copied and displayed in Demopedia and/or any linked Gallery.

I thought I would be home by 8pm and I might be but I'm going to a NYC Kossacks meetup tonight so I might be home later than I thought.
So pay attention to the total and if yours is the thirtieth photo, please alert the mods to lock the thread if I haven't shown up to do that.
