Smash open your electronics and show us the guts!
The Electronic Engineering photo contest on Lenzr wants to see the actual electronic mechanisms inside of things, ie. circuit boards, components, and shiny new computer chips. Break open your clock radio and let's get a look at what's inside; tell a story with wires, elecromagnets, electrical transformers, transistors, resistors, capacitors and microchips.
In the spirit of innovative computer science, let’s make art pictures showcasing electronic technology! Be sure to tell us what piece of the puzzle it is that you’ve submitted, and give keyword descriptions through text that identifies the gadgets and gizmos. Tell us a story about the technology you’re profiling.
The prize is an Apple iPad 2 courtesy of a reed switch manufacturer that develops and distributes these tiny magnetic marvels to the makers of many electronic products you find in an around your home today.

Just my two cents.... but again, it's hard to quantify whats allowable and what isn't in terms of digital alterations... so eaither i think you have to allow all, or allow none (in terms of adding entirely new elements to photo's)... because trying to find the gray area where photo's fall between may cause controversy, and be a difficult task for the admin/judges

Im basing my submissions on only what I can see through my camera`s viewfinder- cropping, exposure, levels ect. I think are acceptable, I would even say technically burn/dodge tool might be pushing the traditional envelope of a 'photograph'.
I guess its up to the judges from here on in, and how much the theme shines through the photos, manipulated or not.

Cameleon. You are quite right. But to ask the Judges to review 70 images per contest would be ... unthinkable. They are volunteers for the most part, and I have to prod them to do it as it is - remember they read all the Descriptions too, its not just a visual exercise. HOWEVER that being said I think the top ten should be 10 % and not just ten images . If there are 150 submission then there should be 15 images etc.
Also as you can all see we are getting hit hard with spam bots from Asia, and so we are probably going to suspend all comments functions except the forum for a spell until Lenzr can afford to buy more dev to remedy that.
Thanks for participating everyone. and Good Luck!
