SSR Sunset Photo Contest
2010 SSR season is now upon us.
I think it is time for us to have a new SSR Photo contest. Our SSR(s) under the sunset skies.
I would like to see new photos that were recently shot and have not been used in one of our previous contests before. This way it will give everyone a fair chance to go out and shoot a great sunset shot. Those that live in the sunny southern states will have an advantage over most of us northerners but then I think we can still find some great sunset shots... even way up in great Canada too.
*I am targeting this contest to start early July so everyone will have some time to go out and plan their shots.
Below is a "sample " ONLY ! I hope it might inspire some ideas ... and what to crop or not to crop.
Youngstown, NY

BTW: My sample photos will not be entered in our contest they are older shots. The one above I had already used in one of our earlier contests where it was picked and was actually used as one of the 12 selected in our first ever official GM licensed SSR calendar that was made.

Now that is a great shot... just do it with your SSR.
BTW: No photo-shopped images will be allowed in this contest. However, you can still enhance, color correct and crop your photos.
*Below are examples ONLY ! Your photos can be cropped to use smaller parts of your SSR too.

Look at the shadows, it was sunset. I don't think the rules require the sun to be in the photo.

If I were a judge, I'd say OK because your sunrise is someone elses sunset.
It's just a matter of perspective.

I love the old Cool Springs station. It was always our first stop out of Kingman on the way to Golden Shores during the annual Route 66 FunFest. Oatman is a hoot too.
