No cropping allowed. Advanced Editing. Fill your frame with your subject but no cropping is allowed. Must think this one through.
ETA: NO CROPPING ALLOWED (LITTLE FLAG ADDED)....wink

Agreed: the typical, high-scoring DPC landscape, for example, wouldn't do well here.
As photographers we often tend to get lazy: "I'll just leave some extra around the edges and crop it optimally in post. We didn't use to have that option when working with color transparencies for publication, which iof they ever DID get cropped it was at the mercy of an Art Director and we usually had no input. So this challenge is good discipline. |

You should make it clear that "no cropping" should be listed as a flagged "Special Rule" to allow disqualification of cropped images, if that's what you want. |

I consider this frame perfectly filled.
When people say "fill the frame" they usually mean macro.
Here's another perfectly filled frame. For me, it's all about the edges of the comp.
And another perfectly filled frame. One of the first shots I noticed by vawendy

Note that two of your examples have been cropped and would not be eligible under the proposed rules. |

Ha! Ok but they do fill the frame well. Paying attention to the edges of the frame "in camera" should be something we all do more often:) |

Not the point I was trying to make. It's impossible to tell by looking at the finished product if it was cropped in PP or not, esp if you stick to standard aspect ratios. And I refuse to vote with a ruler in my hand, trying to figure out who cheated. Ugh. |

I like the way this frame is filled, even though it was shot with not a bit of thought, just reacted as the dog went by.
Full-frame is not the same as thou-shalt-not-crop.

No thought at all went into this bit of serendipity.
