The workhorse of your photos is your computer. Until now your computers were not appreciated. Although you might be changing computers, or use multiple computers to process your photos, there is always "one" that you like and proud of the most.
Take a photo of your PC, Apple, laptop, desktop etc., make it look nice and see who's computer is NOT the fastest, but the best looking :)
Must show at least two parts of your system (case & monitor, case & keyboard, Monitor & keyboard etc.). Your computer must cover at least 3/4 of the frame (only up to 1/4 negative space allowed), must not have anything extra on it (such as toys, flowers, bugs, water droplets etc.) must be the same computer you post process and upload the image file for this challenge and with expert advanced editing rules.

Neat idea. Would be a good exercise in lighting for me. I entered a shot of some of my computers components when I was still purchasing items for it.
I think I've improved a lot and I could do much better with it now. |

With all those restrictions why would you have it Expert Rules? Wouldn't that make it so you can shoot each component separately and "assemble" it in post-processing? I don't see the need for anything beyond Advanced.
BTW: there's no way to make any of my computers look "good" ... :-( |

The idea is giving a "challenge" of a unique perspective of your computer. This would make your creativity work more to come up with a good angle to capture two components of your computer. The goal is to come up with "one shot creativity" instead of cut/paste. Advance editing maybe instead of expert editing, so people could cleanup the scratches :)
...make sense? |

| Advanced editing makes complete sense, Expert did not (to me). |

My fault. I think I meant advanced editing not experts. |
