I have a few photos taken and lined up for this, but I'm waiting a bit longer to see if better photo opportunities come up, plus I have a few more ideas!

Great topic! I'm currently working in the city with the biggest construction and engineering projects in the world, so I should be able to find something. Time to examine the lens of my N95 and P1i.

Pity I just came back from Auckland; I swear the calibre of architectural designer is way above what we have down here in Christchurch...
Haha, too right. We have the art gallery and uh... That's about it unless you wanna go for old brick stuff.
Yes it could well come down to the best of old or new, a real battle!

The way I understand it, the pic in the photo section has to be identical to the one in the contest, so when you want to photoshop, etc., it has to be done before uploading the pic to the photo section.

You're absolutely right, Marly.
These stipulations have been in the esato photo competitions before; nothing new with them this month.
Upload the pic to the esato photo gallery first, edited or not, before including the pic in this monthly photo competition thread.
Hope this clarifies things.

The irony being that the phone pics uploader will only accept original camera pictures (The exif data MUST be intact for it to allow an upload)

Editing is possible and without jeopardising the EXIF data to such a point that it won't upload in the photo gallery. An example, a year or two ago I cropped a N73 pic or two of mine (see my older uploaded pics for an example) then uploaded them. The EXIF data revealed the new dimensions after cropping etc but I was still able to upload it.
Also, look in some of the previous competitions. Some people have altered the colours, lighting etc and have still managed to upload them.
On a personal note, I'm actually for no editng; as I have mentioned before in the 'flowers' photo competition some time ago, I believe that this should be a competition to reflect the mobile phone camera's abilities (and its user), rather than the user's skills of a picture-editing programme.
Having said that, Don did mention that editing was permitted to avoid any accusations of photo-editing skullduggery by any members, if it was a total non-editing prerequisite.
As such, these stipulations will more than likely be carried over into forthcoming monthly photo comps here, as it seems to have worked well over the previous months.
As the old adage goes, 'if it ain't broke...'
