With the new year, there are some things to note. We are changing the entrance fee. It is $50 per person to register until Jan. 7, 2024. On Jan. 8, the fee will increase to $60 per person. It is the first time we have raised the fee since we started accepted entrance fees more than 20 years ago. Regardless of when you register and pay, you may submit photos until Jan. 14. The fee does not affect the deadline.

The rules regarding manipulation stay the same as in previous years. Entries must not be digitally manipulated or altered through post-production processing. Routine post-production processing of images for exposure correction, white balance and color toning is acceptable. Adding, altering, or removing elements is not permitted. Color images should replicate what the human eye experiences. Flagrant pre- or post-production effects that use excessive tonal aberrations, textures, vignettes, color saturation or other manipulations may be disqualified.

Each year we feature categories that focuses on especially impactful news. This year the categories are Impact 2023: Israel-Hamas War (single images) and Impact 2023: Israel-Hamas War Picture Story. The categories will focus on the conflict as well as the responses felt around the world.

How do other sites find a way around this kind of thing? Discogs, RYM, and MetalArchives are chock full of artist pictures, and I cant imagine they rely on staff to add everything manually. Maybe let users submit pictures for your approval, for the time being? That could streamline things if you just had a queue of stuff to approve. Also, adding a legal warning before users add artist images might defer some of the responsibility onto them

Hi! It would be great if you could add this artists profile pictures, since they are getting a lot of reviews on the site, and their albums are ranked as some of the best in the year they were released.

I've had a feeling that she was messing around, or trying to, with someone... ugh.. so I looked in the Photos app and saw nothing out of place... then Hidden and saw that she had pictures (8) of a guy that she knows from work, hugging all over her extremely close and tightly, and kissing her on the cheek in each picture. one was a movie as well where she continues to hold on to him and then realize she's taking a video. huge smile on her face and you can tell she's intoxicated heavily.

we talked the rest of the time while she was at work and I did get really upset, said some things that I probably shouldn't have but it is just really concerning that she had them hidden like that, and saved from last year.

these music shows were not only last year in August and September, but 2 hours away from where we live and a month apart from each other. she went with a different friend (her friend is a female) from here each time. the first time she said it was coincidence that they ran into each other but she did admit to telling him she was going to that other one and they should meet up again. I was not invited to go to any of these shows, either btw

so back to this "I just wasn't thinking" excuse. sh..e wasn't thinking of husband of 11 years? her child? just not thinking of anything? this has spiraled into a huge argument now going on a few days and I really just do not know what to do

on the other hand, it was a kiss on the cheek but why take so many pictures of this when you're married? they took some in the car on the way there, several at the venue and the time stamps were all over, from like 7pm-11pm

another fun fact is that there were a TON of videos of her / pics of her that she had taken "for me" just never sent me, going back over a year, in that same Hidden folder. she swears that she hasn't sent them to anyone or shown anyone. she just took them and then never sent them to me either, which is pretty strange all in itself.

It is estimated and less that 1 out of 100,000 photographs taken today actually ends up being a printed photograph. The digital world means you can look at those on some computer screen and without one, you have nothing. You probably have countless pictures that are just randomly stored and has no organization or way to locate them. Perhaps you have made some effort, but even that can seem overwhelming a task when you decide to tackle the task.

Brimming with pride, new citizen Badra Hirsi from Somalia photographs herself and her cousin Hodo Mohamed in front of the giant Stars and Stripes in the Seattle Center Armory on the Fourth of July at the annual naturalization ceremony, one of our great local events. This year, 293 people from 74 countries became citizens. As the name of each country is read, the new citizens stand to applause from family, friends and local officials. Mohamed already was a citizen.

I am confused about some space photographs and claims like "this galaxy is 13 billions light years away from us.": how we can take the photograph of something that far, if it is 13 billion light years away wouldn't it take 26 billion light years to take those pictures?

I think you are imagining that cameras send out light to the objects, and when this light comes back records the light as an image. Not really. Cameras merely record the light they see from that area. So if that area is 13 billion light years away (not sure how credible source is) then all that means is that the light you are capturing today is the light that galaxy emitted 13 billion years ago.

Only if you were using a flash. With a flash, you'd trigger the flash here, 13 billion years later the flash light would have traveled all the way there and illuminate the distant galaxy, and yet another 13 billion years later it would have traveled back again and you could open the shutter and take a picture from the reflected light from your flash.

But you don't take photographs of deep space objects using a flash. You use the light these objects (or some bright objects nearby) emit by themselves. So you simply open the shutter now, and record the light emitted by the galaxy 13 billion years ago. Which means you're depicting the object as it was 13 billion years ago, but since it was kind enough to emit light all that time ago all by itself, without you asking for it or providing illumination, that does not prevent you from taking your picture.

Taking a photo does not require sending some photons and waiting for them to reflect back from object. Taking a photo is basically getting the photons that are thrown by the object. In my case photons thrown from the objects 13 billion years ago.

First, a light year is just a unit of distance, and not a unit of time. It is 9 460 538 400 000 000 metres. It's widely used as a measure of distance in astronomy as the numbers come out more reasonable, and very conveniently, light travels at 1 light year per year.

You can take a photo of an exploding star 13 billion light years away in exactly the same way as you can take a photo of a candle on the other side of the room. The only difference is how long the light takes to reach you. In the case of the candle, the light will take a few nanoseconds to get from one side of the room to the other, in the case of the exploding star, the light will take 13 billion years.

Your 26 billion year scenario could make some sense: if we wanted to shine a "flash" at our target, flooding it with light to see what bounces back to us so we get a clearer picture, we could do that, and it would indeed take 26 billion years. (Probably longer, since it's probably accelerating away from us.) Well, in theory we could. The flash we made would probably be powerful to incinerate the earth, but that's a small price to pay to give some quasar its own selfie, right? We just have to hope we get it developed in time.

Basically, what you (and the camera) see today maybe does not exist anymore. In the case of objects millions light years away, they were there millions of years ago and now we see something that does not exist, we see the image of what that "thing" looked originally millions of years ago. We see it because the image (light) only now reached us

Just snap photo. You will have a photo of the object how it appeared 13 billion years ago, if it is 13 billion light years away. As the light has been traveling for that length of time. A light year is just a unit of measuring vast distances, the distance it takes light to travel at 186,000 miles per second in a year. One single light year is about 5.88 trillion miles. If you want a photo of the object as it looks at this moment, you will need to wait 13 billion years to take the photo plus or minus any change in distances. The object may not still be there.

The following year, the Academy dropped the Unique and Artistic Picture award, deciding retroactively that the award won by Wings was the highest honor that could be awarded, and allowed synchronized sound films to compete for the award.[8] Although the award kept the title Outstanding Picture for the next ceremony, the name underwent several changes over the years as seen below. Since 1962, the award has been simply called Best Picture.[6]

Until 1950, this award was presented to a representative of the production company. That year the protocol was changed so that the award was presented to all credited producers. This rule was modified in 1999 to apply a maximum limit of three producers receiving the award, after the five producers of Shakespeare in Love had received the award.[9][10][11]

The Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director have been closely linked throughout their history. Of the 96 films that have won Best Picture, 69 have also been awarded Best Director. Only six films have been awarded Best Picture without receiving a Best Director nomination: Wings directed by William A. Wellman (1927/28), Grand Hotel directed by Edmund Goulding (1931/32), Driving Miss Daisy directed by Bruce Beresford (1989), Argo directed by Ben Affleck (2012), Green Book directed by Peter Farrelly (2018), and CODA directed by Sian Heder (2021). The only two Best Director winners to win for films that did not receive a Best Picture nomination were during the early years of the awards: Lewis Milestone for Two Arabian Knights (1927/28), and Frank Lloyd for The Divine Lady (1928/29).[14] 0852c4b9a8
