:bulletgreen: Theme & Rules
Create Mother Nature. The challenge of this contest is to come up with a creative way to depict Mother Nature, a fresh look at an old idea.

You May Enter-
Photography, Digital art, Traditional art, and Photo Manipulations.
Photo manipulations must be made of your own works. Entries using stock from other deviant galleries will be disqualified. (No Collaborative Works)
Nudity and Light Violence will be allowed, as they may be needed to express the artists envision of Mother Nature or current ecological distress.
I will accept Old Deviations.

# of Entries Allowed-
You may enter only 1 deviation per account.


Not Allowed-
Excessive Violence or Sexual Nudity will be disqualified.
No Collaborative Works. There are some wonderful prizes that would be hard to divide between 2 or more people.
No Fan Art
No Literature. This is an image contest.
All Persons Related to Me will not be allowed to join, to avoid claims of favoritism, Sorry guys =(

To Submit-
To Submit an Entry send Me ( *Shadow-D-Keeper ) a Note titled “Entry” with a link to the deviation you want to enter.
Please include any needed explanations as to how your work pertains to Mother Nature.
Example: A stick figure holding a water bottle may need some added explanation for our judges to understand its meaning to you.

Each entry will be judged individually, based on a point system. The person with the most points will win. In the case of a tie a special secret judge will be called in to judge the two and pick a winner.

Points-
This is how the entries will be pointed.
1.) Subject Matter (How well your entry represents Mother Nature) 1-15 :
2.) Originality (Creativeness of your envision of Mother Nature) 1-10 :
3.) Clarity (the ability to identify the subject/s or elements in the entry) 1-5 :
4.) Difficulty (the level of skill needed to complete the entry) 1-5 :
5.) Elements (how well the elements of the entry go together to convey an idea) 1-5 :
Total point = 40 possible from each judge, 120 total.

:bulletgreen: Announcement
The Winners Will Be Announced on May 10th, In my Weekly Report.
This gives our judges time to go over each and every entry, make sure no one is over looked, and allows me time to find the 12 best deviations from the winners’ gallery to feature in the “weekly Spotlight”
Those who Donate a Prize will be notified by Note on May 10th.
