Every week, the Sony Talk Forum (STF) and Canon Talk Form (CTF) of Dpreview.com have a Mini Challenge where members are encouraged to enter up to 3 entries for competition. After the 3rd entry, any more entries are considered Exhibition only. The first-place winner gets to host the next challenge - chooses the theme and judges the entries.
When (Host Samples) is part of the Mini Challenge description, that means that I was the host of the Mini Challenge.
When an asterisk (*) precedes the name of the challenge, that means that some of the images placed either as honourary mention or 1st, 2nd,or 3rd.
