Title: Photography Showdown!
Post by: Fedgar_Lurch on June 06, 2014, 11:25:15 PM
Alright. Since we have two photographer applications available. I feel its only fair to make this a public competition.

So, you each have 3 days to send me your 5 best photos.

Rules:
All photos must be taken by you. I will check.
All photos must be taken on SentinelCraft.
You must use atleast 2 different resource packs
You must use shaders in atleast one photo
You must have atleast one night time, and one day time photo.
You may not submit photos you have previously posted.

Your 72 hours begins now. When you have submitted them PRIVATELY I will repost them and people will anonymously post each set for the public to vote on.
After 4 days of voting we will see who the winner is. If the race is within 10% I will extend the voting period.

Good luck!

You can submit them via Email to Fedgar@sentinelcraft.net
or Via Skype to Fedgar_Lurch
any other methods you will have to get in touch with me about.

SentinelCraft Photography Showdown!

(https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fs12.postimg.org%2Ftojxte44t%2Fdiv.png&t=540&c=I6U4Eynqihx3dA)

     Alright everyone, here is the deal, Since we have two talented people applying for the server photographer position, I plan on making a contest out of it.

     Below I will post 5 pictures that each of them took, But the key is, I will not reveal who took which photo. Niether contestant will reveal who took which photo either, that way popularity will not influence the votes.

The rules as stated in the previous posts are as follows!

Rules:
All photos must be taken by you. I will check.
All photos must be taken on SentinelCraft.
You must use atleast 2 different resource packs
You must use shaders in atleast one photo
You must have atleast one night time, and one day time photo.
You may not submit photos you have previously posted.

Because there are five photo's for each competing player. It may take a second to load up. Be patient. These are High Res images.

Without further ado...

Credit where credit is due. It is aesthetically pleasing.

So what does everyone like about the photographs?

i feel as if 1 is a lot better than the other

I feel as if they are almost as good as each other, the one thing that lets Number 2 down is that he/she could have chosen better locations to take their last 2 photos while #1 has all good locations.

Positioning for the photo is also something that is important for a photographer!

Agreed. Even if it means building up 20 blocks to get that perfect position.

Title: The Photography Winner!
Post by: Fedgar_Lurch on June 22, 2014, 03:25:49 PM
Congratulations to Ivaleon! He won the photography contest against IamSwifteh!

That being said I think both participants did an excellent job and can work together in the future to create great photographic works!

Ivaleon will be awarded the title of Special as a server photographer, with privileges and responsibility commensurate with the rank.

Congratulations! I possibly could have some tips that would make your photographs more optimized. If fedgar gives me permission I'll be sure to help you out. :)
And definetly for every winner there has to be a loser. Don't loose hope swifteh. Do the best you can do and come out with flying colours showing that you can do equally better :)
Ps I was gonna be an anyamous photographer in the competition but fed didn't post it and it doesn't matter now because I can't be that active :(
