September 2009 Photo Contest Submission Thread  

post #1 of 116
Thread Starter 
The theme for September 2009 is: “Do Not Disturb a cat in bed!” or cats in either your bed or their bed (awake or asleep, just in bed)!

Basics:
NO CATS CAN BE HARMED FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS CONTEST! Mildly annoyed , yes, but not actually harmed (pretty much goes without saying).


1.Only one entry per month, but you can change your mind and submit a different photo during the submission period.
2.No photo that has been featured in a past TCS Calendar can be submitted again. However, photos that were not in the top 3 (or 4 as the case may have been) can be resubmitted if they apply to the theme of the month. Additionally, photos can be submitted for more than one month but can only be voted in to the Calendar (top 3) once.
3.Rights to the winning photographs are granted to www.thecatsite.com for use in future TCS projects made available for purchase to other members and the public.

Photography

1. Photo and all rights must be owned by the submitter.
2.Photo entry must be at least 480 x 640 pixels, with higher resolution/size availability (by email) preferred.
3.Photo must be clear, focused, not manipulated by Photoshop (basic altering such as cropping, brightness, etc. is allowed) and apply to the theme of the month.
4.Photos that do not necessarily meet #2 and #3 can be entered, but will not make the final voting rounds.

Please be sure to tell us the name of the kitty(ies) in the photo, for award/future purposes.

The prize will include points, a custom signature and bragging rights for having the first, second and third place Ms. or Mr. September. The 1st place winner will also have a copy of the 2010 Cats of TheCatSite Calendar sent to them when it's finished. The calendar will include at least the top 3 place cats (possibly more depending on how close the votes are) from each monthly contest!

We also need to mention that winners will be asked to email full sized versions of the photograph to a moderator, and winning images will be used for future TCS projects made available for purchase to other members and the public (see above).

Deadline for submission is September 22, 2009.

All members, moderators, admin, and site owner are eligible for this contest.

This is the one month I knew which photo to submit. Trent in his bed that he got for his birthday that year.

I really like this one as it looks like Whisky is scowling at Oliver but he is just yawning...

Does it need to be a bed bed, or their favorite place for bed? If this is valid, my post for now....

Or I can enter this one, of Bugsy waiting for me to turn off my laptop on bed.... What do you guys think?

The title of this pic is No Room For You

The story is, I was airing a sleeping bag, but left it out on the line too long and it got damp. I spread it on the bed. When I went in to go to bed, this is what I found. As you can tell by their faces, there was No Room For Me!

I guess I have misunderstood the theme of the pictures requested. When I read "do not disturb" I took it to mean pictures of a cat either being disturbed, or trying not to be disturbed. oh well

Does the photo have to be one where they're actually ON the bed, or can it be one where they're sleeping in a weird position?

There was an earlier contest for sleeping kitties. This one is for cats in/on a bed.
