** Note:
Lets us give you some direction as to what the Chop Zuey Judges are looking for:
1.) Give Good Face - show us a beautful face that glows. that means you need to get in close enough when you shoot the photo.
2.) Make your Chop Zuey Jewellery look great!. Also, dont forget about the 3 P's - Prim Placement Please. Watch the way the jewellery would move or fall according to your pose - i.e. if you head is tilted to the left then reason says your dangling earring will do the same. Show that to us in your photo.
3.) Photoshop is allowed, therefore take advantage of this to make your Photo look as profession as possible.
4.) Don't waste your photo on body shots that are too far away. We want to see you and your jewellery. Do that in whatever creative way you see fit.
Thank you

Celebrating Five Years of Exposed With a Special Anniversary Magazine
Image by HeatherMG
We know you're busy finding your best photos to enter into the 2011 DCist Exposed Photography Contest. But we want to take a moment to commemorate not just a new exciting year of Exposed, but that 2011 marks five awesome years of our little photography show. Since 2006, DCist Exposed has featured some of the best local photography out there, showcasing images of Washington, D.C.'s unique culture, produced by the people who live and work here. So DCist, in collaboration with Ten Miles Square, are publishing a special Fifth-Year Anniversary magazine.
The magazine will feature the winners from the last four years, along with the winners that we'll announce in January (even more incentive to enter!). The issue will be ready in time for 2011 Exposed opening night, and will be available for purchase both in person and online for (or less -- we'll know better once we nail down exactly how many pages it will be), along with a free iPad version. We're going to need a little help funding and gauging interest in this fairly massive project that will involve over 100 photographers -- nearly all of whom have been featured regularly on this here website of ours.
We've decided to put our faith in Kickstarter, an online fundraising platform for art projects. At our project page, donors can pledge a certain amount – as little as – and if the pledges fully fund our project by our deadline, January 23, huzzah! If we cannot raise that amount, we get nothing; an interesting all-or-nothing bet on how worthy our project is. We think publishing a definitive collection of real D.C. photography is indeed worthy, so we're offering all kinds of rewards for your donation, too. If you pledge or more, you'll get a free copy of the magazine sent to your door -- there are other rewards as you go up the donor scale, such as an 8x10 print of a winning Exposed photo, credit in the magazine and more.
We hope, like us, you'll find this compilation of Washington, D.C. photography a worthy project, and are already dusting off the coffee table for your pre-ordered copy. Your donation will help us create and design the magazine, and let us reward the fantastic local photographers whose work we're featuring in the collection.
If your photo was featured in one of the Exposed shows and you haven't received an email from me about this (or you have, but haven't answered yet and still want to participate), email me at heather [at] dcist.com and we'll get you hooked up.

This artist is calling for suggestions!

Right now I've thought about this painting but as for other options nothing comes to mind that is good enough to enter. Also, I'll be needing a Savage [my city] photograph for this contest.
Please feel free to leave your suggestions! All help is greatly appreciated.
