Photo Competition Number 1 by Lincøln, Audey Lee
January 26th, 2008 5:53 AM / Location: 34.233953,-118.3673
Lincoln & Audey Lee set out on the evening of Tuesday, January 22nd 2008 to take ten pictures each.
They mostly followed the rules in that they each took one picture of Text, Portrait, Black & White, Place of Business and the corner of Sunland & La Tuna Canyon (our approximation of Stockton & Post that happened to be close to Lincoln's house) and five Wild Cards. And to throw a little wrench into the works Lincoln took all of his pictures within 150 feet of the corner of Sunland & La Tuna Canyon and he also took all of his photos within a tight fifteen minute time frame. Lincoln didn't tell Audey Lee that he was doing this, but because it was a rainy night, she almost fit into these constraints as well. Except that she took some photos of the In n Out they stopped at on their way to tasking and they were too good to pass up. So when they arrived at their chosen destination, Lincoln gave Audie a bit of a head start and then off to photographing they went. This is what they came up with.
Lincoln's photos will show up first and Audey Lee's will show up second. And the way the layout will work is you'll see both text photos at the top, First Lincoln's and then Audey Lee's. Then Lincoln's Portrait, then Audey Lee's and so on and so forth.
So here we go:

Yay, Burn Unit wins!
Congratulations, Senator Unit.
Audey, a belated welcome to the game. I'm thrilled to have another player in the Southland. Hope you'll stick around.
I'm a sucker for photos taken from the side-view mirror of a car. This is a pretty fine example.

I really like this, I would say the Mexican guy in the portrait is my favourite photograph. I also love the roof junk so I will have to say that Lincoln has it for me.

agreed - lincoln's gent in the truck is my fave. though I do feel intrigued by Audey's last wild card. Well played!
i love how the text of the task just says "share results". It may be called a competition, but you don't actually have to pick a winner.
we win.
