Holy shit! This is my first post is almost a fortnight, so lets make it a good one! And a good one would be the triumphant return of the Abandoned Shit Weekly Contest! This marks the 20th contest and I'm looking forward to seeing the entries. Please note the new rule to add your entry link into the comment section of this post!

The Contest:

This is NOT a photography contest. The subject matter is what's being judged with the Abandoned Shit Weekly contest, not one's skills with a camera. Honestly, I just want to see some cool abandoned shit. lol HOWEVER, as with any photograph, the "wow factor" can certainly be enhanced with a technically sound execution. Simply put, winners won't be chosen strictly on artistry.

The Prizes:

1st Place = 10 x 100% Power upvotes at 10,000 SP
2nd Place = 5 x 100% Power upvotes at 10,000 SP
3rd Place = 3 x 100% Power upvotes at 10,000 SP

---

The Theme:

This week's theme = Windows! Your photos should feature the windows of an abandoned building or vehicle. Pretty straight forward here. I'll be pretty lenient on the theme ruling, just make sure a window is pretty prominent in your entry.

---

The Rules:

Rule #1 = Your abandoned shit photo must be posted using the tag #aswcontest for one of your tags. This is crucial so that your entry can be seen/found!
Rule #2 = Your photo must be taken by YOU. If you take an imagine from the internet and use it as your entry into this contest, you will be disqualified and I will flag you.

Rule #3 = Only ONE entry per user, per week. Save some content for future contests! However, multiple images of the SAME object or place in your entry post is OK.

Rule #4 = Tell us what we're looking at! You don't have to write a novel, but let us know what the picture is of, and where you found it. That's the most interesting part! Equipment and camera settings can be included at your discretion, but is not necessary.

Rule #5 = Stick to the weekly theme!

NEW! Rule #6 = Post the link to your entry in the comments below! This is just incase I get busy again, I can easily find all entries just below.

The Time:

When = New ASW contests will start on TUESDAYS and will end at 11:59pm EST on SUNDAY. Winners will be announced on Monday with awards distributed then as well. I figure it's a good way to start the week!

---

The HELP:

HELP! - I'd really like this contest to become an established, weekly feature. Resteeming the official contest announcement post here would be a huge help in getting the word out, though you do not HAVE to in order to participate in the contest. I'm just asking as a favor. Also, just mentioning the contest in/on your entry post would help a lot!

^^^Here's the photo I used for the contest logo above. It was the remains of a random abandoned farm house that we found in the west of Iceland. They windows may be abandoned, but they still have a hell of a view!
