I'm looking forward to this challenge, especially since its Minimal Editing. My PS skills suck...and despite rummaging online quite a bit, I've never got the hang of it...

Now just have to take the time... |

Remember that you can't shoot in RAW!!!
A lot of people forget and it results in a lot of DQs |

| I think this will be quite a challenge! It is really going to test the technical skill of the photographer, as potentially quite tricky exposure is going to have to be absolutely nailed in-camera. |

| I have some great ideas for this challenge but I don't know if I can pull them off with minimal editing. Basic no problem but minimal will be tough. It will be interesting to see what people can come up. |

ouch!!! Minimal!?! There's absolutely no way I can be successful at this! I couldn't even do it with basic editing!
It will be fun to try. :D |

In a minimal editing challenge, it's going to hard to produce an image of a subject of a lighter color than white ;) |

I had to go back and re-read the challenge rules. I had missed that before. Had I been a member for this challenge, I totally would have shot in RAW.

Oh no...I've been setting up to shoot a piece of glass on a sheet.

Also note when viewing the Previous Light on White challenges for inspiration...(see OP)
I & II were basic editing
III & IV were advanced editing
AS mentioned....this one is minimal editing! I might have to give this a go! |

Personally, I thought mine was the only one that was NOT DNMC! I mean, really. Everyone else did pale on white. I actually did light on white!

I tried that too, back in 2005.
I would have a hard time with that shot today since most exterior lamps now have those ugly, spiral fluorescent bulbs. 8( |

Actually, I think that is quite clever and I wouldn't vote it down as DNMC. I was just joking anyway and making fun of the slight mess up of wording of the challenge description. I don't really take challenge descriptions to literal extremes. |

I was teasing, too. :P |

I got less than happy results from the multiple light source challenge with a similar take. Humor is not always welcome it seems.

Yep - very few challenges have used minimal editing. This is going to be a very good lighting challenge. |

| I actually have a shot that I am happy with for this...it took quite a bit of work to get the lighting right. It is fun when you accomplish the goal. I can't imagine it will score crazy high, but I like the shot so enter I will.... |

I've actually been looking forward to a minimal challenge, but I agree that light on white at first sounds like a lighting challenge. Since I have no light set up, and it's not winter, Im struggling to think of where I can find light on white in the natural world around me where I can just click the shutter and make it work. |

My recommendations for this type of challenge is a light box. All you need is cardboard box, some white paper, a few lamps or lights with similar power, and off you go. |

Me too, but I did my "Light On White" back in December 2009. Didn't fare well, but that was also two cameras back with a lot less experience. LOL.
