So I have entered myself into the UCI Photolympics competition (details of the rules are here) which has these categories:

1. Mobile Photos (taken from a cell phone)
2. Self Portraits (they seem to be rather popular at the moment)
3. UCI Life (Special Prize)
4. Macro (Close-up photos)
5. Abstract
6. Best Use of Adobe Photoshop (Special Prize)

In addition, there are three more universal categories:

7. Most Original
8. Best Photo (Grand Prize - Will be chosen from the first seven categories)
9. UCI Web Choice Award (Recognized after the event through internet voting)

So far I’ve taken a shedload of photos when I can on campus and here are some candidates I’ve got and I want to hear what you people think of these. If you want to look at a larger version of the photo just click on the image:

I’ve got till the 24th of this month to submit my photos for the various categories, so the sooner I hear back from everyone the better, thanks!

About the Author

Daniel Spisak was born from the fiery depths of fusion and now roams the pale blue dot known as Earth. I obtained my bachelors degree in Computer Science from UC Irvine at the end of 2007.

I am also involved in technology & security consulting firms as well as being a freelance technology writer. I also contribute to Jerry Pournelle's website and Chaos Manor Reviews. Additionally I am also a freelance photographer as well and you can find my photos either on my own personal gallery or up at my Flickr account or on Zivity.

This blog is one of the main locations where I do my writing, which is then automatically sent to my LiveJournal, VOX, and MySpace accounts. I can also be found on a variety of social networking and microblogging sites like Pownce, Twitter, Brightkite, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

If your viewing this site with Internet Explorer it may not look correct because IE is horrible about following W3C web standards properly or consistently. I suggest you try browsing the Internet with Firefox. It is much better and not as vulnerable to security flaws as IE can be.
