Innocence of an angel - Group Contest
Contest Theme - ἄγγελος
Create an very innocent angel. It can be a child, female or male angel, but it have to be a innocent one. Try to imagine what angels are. Here is a little help:
An angel is a supernatural being or spirit found in various religions and mythologies. In Abrahamic religions they are often depicted as servants of God and celestial beings who act as intermediaries between heaven and Earth.[1] In Zoroastrianism and Native American religions angels are depicted as a guiding influence or a guardian spirit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel

Creatures crawl in search of blood . . .
To terrorize your neighborhood!

You decide what happens when darkness falls!
Is it macabre? Is it fantasy? Is it emotional?
It is up to you.

The Raven and the Dove
UPDATE: :bulletred: New deadline: Sunday 12th of August
:bulletred: Here are the rules :bulletred:
1. Create something that fits to the theme The Raven and the Dove
You can use Stock pictures with a Raven and a Dove or you can try to be more abstract, like having a male model with black clothes and a female model in a white dress.
Or even both or something completly different. There are no limits to your imagination!
Think about the theme and try to create something out of the ordinary and surprise me :D
Please write a short comment in your description what is your idea behind your work.
This is especially very important when the Raven and the Dove are not visible on first view.

It means, that there has to be at least one element in the picture with wi
- Photomanip Contest -Bravery
Start Date: June 26, 2012

Your mission is to create a manipulation that somehow expresses bravery. You will not be given anymore information than that. How you choose to portray it is up to you and only you!
Judging: This contest will be judged by me. I will not accept other judging offers.
I will not be judging by personal preference nor will I choose any "friend" to win. I will be judging based on technique, originality, and effort. I will not go easy on you if you are a beginner, your art will be judged just as fairly as the others.
Rules
Sorry guys, I guess I should have added this earlier, but I was being pressured to get off the computer.

> Slapping a filter over an image is not acceptable. You must use multiple images
> Any animal may be the subject (I don't care if its a friggin okapi, as long as it fits the theme)

Challenge closed, elves shuffling entries (elevator music)...

Hi, three days left to get your entries in (it's 29 July here). As we are up to over 80 entries, I'm going to get the hat out, shake it about and draw the entries in lot's of eight for the polls. Then I'll run each poll for two days so don't forget to vote. There will be two semi-finalist polls (as there are 11 polls and 10 slots). The top three winners of each of the two polls will go into the finalist poll and I'll run that for three days. Don't make me say poll again.
