---------------------------------------------------
Let's talk about some rules and instructions
No PC postprocessing please! I set the camera to what I believe is the best setting for R10. But feel free to change the camera settings according to your preference. You can, of course, use in-camera editing.
You can take as many photos as you like, but before sending the camera to next person, select 5 photos you consider to be best and make them protected (there is an option to protect the photos right in camera menu). Then upload small previews (in max. size 1024x768) to this thread and upload full sized photos to the journey Flickr group (contact me about invitation). I hope Flickr is not a problem for anyone of you? I believe that most of you already have Flickr account and if not, you can create new one for free.
Finally, delete rest of your taken photos from the card. In other words, on card should be left only your five photos + all photos from previous stops.
The camera should be send to next person in as short time as possible. The name and address of following person will be provided by me (via PM). The maximum time one can hold the camera is 7 days.
Please guys, if we want to finish this project before end of this year, try to ship the camera as soon as possible. It would be ideal if the participants from the same city (London, Hong Kong) would hand the camera over in person. It would not only minimize the shipping costs but also speed the things up.
BTW, there is a Ricoh travel diary shipped with the camera. Feel free to enter few words about journey, camera, or whatever you like. Cartoons are greatly welcome too!
Theme:
Ricoh folks asked me to set up an ecologic/environmental theme for this project. I thought about it for a very long time and I think it would be very hard to take a reasonable environmental photos in such short time. So the theme is open. But if possible, try to take at least one "green" themed photo. Otherwise, you can take any photo you like and in your favorite photographic style. There are no additional rules.
And now a little surprise!
At the end of camera trip, there will be announced a photo contest from all your taken photos! The winner will get a Ricoh digital camera! At the moment, I don't know which one, but I think it will be one of the actual models (actual at a time of ending this photo project). Second and third place will get the SW prizes.
UPDATE:
And the winners (voting is here) of the contests are...
Congratulation folks! And well done everyone! The journey was very interesting experience and I look forward to start next one!
