Photo Contest - Crystal Lattice (7/9-7/15)

In summary, a crystal lattice is a regular arrangement of atoms, molecules, or ions in a crystalline solid. To enter the photo contest with the theme of crystal lattice, you must submit your original photo during the specified time period and follow all guidelines and requirements. The winner will be chosen by a panel of judges based on creativity, composition, and relevance to the theme.

Crystal Lattice

In solid state physics, a crystal lattice is an arrangement of atoms/molecules in a repeated pattern. So this week, your photo must have, as its main subject, something that has a repeated pattern. Please ensure that this repeated pattern occurs more than just once or twice, and that the pattern is repeated adjacent to each other (i.e. it doesn't occur a meter away, for example).

Good luck!

Contest Rules:

1. Any digital photo or digitally-scanned photo relevant to the theme will be accepted within the contest period. In case there's a gray area, or you're not sure if the picture is suitable, check with me first.

2. Please resize your digital photo to no more than 800 x 600 or 600 x 800 pixels. You may also crop your picture if you wish. You are also allowed to adjust the brightness and contrast of your picture but these should not dramatically alter the look of the picture. But other than those, any form of picture editing or modification is not allowed. This is a photo contest, not a picture editing/special effect contest. You may add a watermark or your name/nickname to the photo for identification purposes.

3. Upload your photos to any of the photo servers such as imageshack or photobucket. Then post it the relevant contest thread and link your picture using the img command. PM me if you do not know how.

4. Only ONE picture per member per contest. Once a picture is posted, it cannot be changed other than a total withdrawl by that member from that week's photo contest. Exceptions will be made for modification to comply with the rules, such as resizing.

5. At the end of the contest period, I will open a poll and every PF member can vote for the picture they like best.

6. Note that in case we have a large number of entries, I will do the polling in more than one thread. If that's the case, you can vote in each of the polling threads. The photos will be assigned in the polling threads in the order they were submitted.

7. The photo of the subject must be something that you took directly, not via in intermediary medium, and not taken by someone else. Unless otherwise noted, a photo of another photo, painting, print, etc. does not qualify.

8. You can use a picture only once. Once it is used in a contest, it cannot be reused in another contest.

9. Please post only pictures meant for submission in this thread. Photos not meant for submission must not be posted in the contest thread. Posting of more than one photos by a member may result in an automatic disqualification from the week's contest.

FAQ: Photo Contest - Crystal Lattice (7/9-7/15)

1. What is a crystal lattice?

A crystal lattice is the regular arrangement of atoms, molecules, or ions in a crystalline solid. It is a repeating three-dimensional pattern that extends throughout the entire structure.

2. How do I enter the photo contest?

To enter the photo contest, you will need to submit your photo on the designated submission page during the specified time period. Make sure to follow all the guidelines and requirements listed in the contest rules.

3. What is the theme of the photo contest?

The theme of the photo contest is crystal lattice. This means that your photo should capture the beauty and complexity of crystal lattices in nature or in man-made structures.

4. Are there any restrictions on the type of photo I can submit?

Yes, there are some restrictions on the type of photo you can submit. Your photo must be original and taken by you. It should also not contain any copyrighted material or inappropriate content.

5. How will the winner of the photo contest be chosen?
