Tis the season of WTF
« on: December 01, 2009, 12:51:10 PM »
So here we go... my wife and I were driving around after dark last night looking at all the "beautiful" decorations.  And therefore we decided there should be a contest. 

Goal: Take pictures of the most hideous/poorly done Christmas decorations. 

Rules:

1) Taken in full glory (at night).
2) Can be taken of a residence or business.
3) Must be submitted by December 20th.
4) Can be photography or video (video preferred if the full effect cannot be captured because of moving items or changing lights).
5) Must be your own photography/video (nothing stolen from the web).
6) Cannot be taken of your own creation.

Judging will occur in the following categories:

1) Least Effort
2) Worst Color Combination
3) Worst Motion
4) Least Holiday-specific lawn ornament

Others may be added and rules may change. 

GO FORTH AND COLLECT THE WORST!   :dblthumb2:

shall it be assumed that all photography/video must be you own work (not viral or otherwise web-based content)?

Can we add a rule that it can't be your own property?  And that it can't be an obvious attempt at horror?

Nah... if you try to make your own property look horrible for Christmas just to win an esink contest, then you should go right ahead.

I've got a pretty good one for this, probably under Worst Color Combination, but perhaps better suited to a new category, "Worst mish-mash of mismatching lights."

I just have to take a picture of it. They only turn it on from like 5:30 to 8:30 or something.

I think I've seen a few LED Christmas lights up the past couple of nights. They're absolutely blinding.
