Hi everyone!

I have read the challenge rules and it it says that you can't add text to your picture - However if the text is actually in the origional shot is it ok???

Example: For one of the challenges I want to use some Police tape that has the words "Police line - do not cross" printed on it, or use plain tape with a sign that says the same thing. It is a significant part of the photo - but not THE main focus. Is this ok, or do I need to use plain tape with no wording at all???

Also what about photographing signs that have words on them.

I don't want to get DQ'd - so any help would be welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Kat

That would be fine it's when you add text in your postprocessing that would get you disqualified

Sure, txt in the original shot is fine, just no adding of text in editing, watermarks or cute little hallmark sayings are out.
