Okay everyone...the August 2021 theme is Macro Dobes!

Also, please note we have placed a "sticky" in this forum with the themes for each month for 2021. This will give everyone a chance to get prepared with their photos!


PLEASE NOTE THESE CHANGES TO THE CONTEST RULES: Submissions will be open for the next 10 days (until August 18th, 2020, 5:00 P.M. EST.) To enter, simply embed your photo in your post as a response to this thread. Also, this year we will be allowing people who win in one month to also enter and win in another month. So you will have two chances throughout the year to enter your photos!

Size of photos to submit in this thread MUST BE 640 x480 or less.

However, the original picture must be approx 3000 x 2000 pixels to enable it
to be large enough to print full size on the calendar. It must also be your own photograph. If you need help resizing or posting your image, contact a moderator and someone will help you.

Once the entries have closed, a moderator (different each month) will select the TOP 10 pictures.

These 10 pictures will then be voted on by the Dobermantalk members by way of a poll and the photo with the greatest amount of votes will be the winner. The poll will be posted for 5 days only.

One entry only per member.

Again, please re-size your photo to the appropriate dimensions before posting it. We have had some complaints about large photographs being posted and we need to keep it to a standard in order to be fair for everyone. If you need help resizing a photo or posting it please don't hesitate to PM a moderator.

Let's see those photos!

Before owning Dobermans, I had thought their ears were always up in alert position. Soon, I learned that they flatten out ears when being affectionate.
I see this same close-up view of Eva at least a dozen times/day, sometimes side by side with Spock's head, both striving for attention & love!

If she can reach, she will nuzzle her snout into your stomach while you are petting and scratching her neck.

This is not an entry, just a funny Super-Macro. :grin2: I took this, then figured it wasn't what you were looking for!
This IS what "macro" means!

There are some nice photos in this thread that are good pictures but...aren't quite what the category calls for.

The intent was for a super close up - a different look at our dogs. It doesn't have to be any particular part - we've had people in past years enter paws, eyes...whatever photo they liked best and thought people would want to look at in the calendar.

It's a different category than "head shot", for example.

Hope that helps? If you want to change your entry we can certainly do that for you.

Since the macro submissions seemed to fallen into the category of eagle eye or Dobernose, I am resubmitting my picture of Eva, now close cropped, to fit better into the macro theme...
