I don't know, to be honest. It seems a bit wrong if people vote for a photo that is good, but doesn't fit the contest guidelines.

That's why voting is a delicate balance I think. A couple of times I have asked myself that very question. But perhaps you are thinking of the pictures of a couple of cats together - well, aren't they really "up close and personal" with each other, rather than with the photographer - if that's what you're questioning, IMO it's just another way of answering the brief!

Re: PHOTO CONTEST - Up close and personal


TBH I thought it meant a close up pic of your cat too .......this is how Yola described the theme.........


As the title suggests, please post close-up pictures of your cats . . . anything goes . . . could be their paw, their face, their eye/s

Well, that's how I understood it Mags, but thought others may have chosen a different interpretation.

That's true, it's strange how we can interpret things differently isn't it ....never mind, the votes will tell!

Re: PHOTO CONTEST - Up close and personal


I just didnt see that it said up close of the cat itself. I changed it anyway. Its no biggie. I have LOTS of pics. LOL. I just thought the one with Yoda and Jasper being up close and personal with each other was cute. BTW the one of Angel is taken with my new camera. I still havent learned all the bells and whistles on it yet. But it does a really good job.

I think it's a great pic of Angel; as mentioned earlier it is odd how differently we can interpret the guidelines.
