G-Whiz!

Welcome to the G-Whiz Weekend! The idea is to have fun, take some pictures, and capture a few days in the life of a Contax G user. Dates for the upcoming weekends are listed below:


Note: in order to confuse things further, G-Whiz weekends will be numbered in accordance with the month; therefore, there will never be a G-Whiz weekend number 3.

# Date Theme
4. April 1-2 Open
5. May 6-7 In the air
6. June 3-4 Open
7. July 1-2 Blue or Green
8. August 5-6 Open
9. September 2-3 All in a row
10. October 7-8 Open
11. November 4-5 Passion
12. December 2-3 Open

Get your cameras ready, because you only have two days!

Rules

  1. All photographs must be taken on either Saturday or Sunday of the weekend (your local time).
  2. All photographs must be taken with a Contax G camera. I would assume most would also use a G-series lens, but I suppose some might use an SLR lens with an adapter. That's Ok.
  3. No restrictions on subject matter, film, etc., except my own personal discretion what makes it onto the site. I live in the United Kingdom, and there are laws regarding pornography, etc., so no smut please.
  4. Photographs should be digitized to a resolution no larger than 640x480 pixels and submitted to gwhiz@contaxg.com in JPEG (.JPG) format. Please submit only one image per weekend. You've only got one chance, so make it your best one.
  5. All photographs should be accompanied with your personal copyright information or a statement that you intend for the picture to be placed in the public domain. You should also include, if at all possible, information about lens/film/exposure/flash, and any descriptive information as needed. Please make sure you indicate the weekend and theme in your email.
  6. Submissions should be received by the following G-Whiz weekend date; any submissions received after that will be ignored.

Right now, there's no judge or jury; I will attempt to publish everything that fits on the website (and expand the website if necessary).

Because we've decided to host G-Whiz weekends on a monthly basis, every other month will be "open" (you choose the subject), and alternate months will be "thematic" (a theme is suggested).
