'May Theme: Monochrome' Photo Contest Entries

Hi Dollobservers,

The theme for May is classic 'Monochrome', in all shades of black white and grey. Your dolls must be dressed for the theme or posed in a monochrome setting. Please note: photos turned into black and white by computer wizardry will not be accepted :)

Add your 'Monochrome' themed doll pics to this discussion using the 'image' icon on the far left of the discussion tool bar.

The 'rules' of the theme photo competition are very simple:

  • Your photo must contain a doll or dolls
  • Make sure the photo relates to the spirit of the relevant month's theme
  • Members should enter one photo only per theme (although you are free to add more but please highlight which particular photo you would like to go forward into the competition)
  • Make sure to have fun!

Remember the Prize now stands at a whopping $50!

Here is my entry; it's my first time.  What's happened is Eric Manning, DEA agent and mega millionaire from Baytown, has been staking out Octopussy's lair for quite some time now because of her illegal dealings in about anything wrong.  He's been watching Senators and big business men come and go, but this time they got sloppy.  Eric decided to go in under cover to buy some weapons and she took the bait.  She wasn't going to go down easy so Eric had to play hardball right back at her.  You know evil never wins; especially when Eric Manning is on the case.

(something is chopping off the right side and I don't know what to do about it; let me know if I need to please)

for the crop you can just reduce the photo while editing it, but even as it is it's quite good.
