Edit Me 2012 Week 26

Hey Friends! Stephanie here. Welcome to Week 26 of the Edit Me Challenge 2012!

We've made it half way through the year! Has anyone participated every week this year? I'd really like to know if you have and give you a little recognition. We are in the full swing of summer here and Branson and I feel we need a little break, well just a little change really. So, I'm here to announce The Edit Me Challenge's special summer event.

There will be no new challenge for July 4th, but we will be back for Edit Me's Summer Show Off on July 11th! More details to come next week! 

Now for this week's challenge we have really awesome judge...ME! ha! =) For those of you who are just finding Edit Me or don't know me very well yet, you can check out my blog, Behind the Camera and Dreaming. You can also find me on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and here's my little Etsy shop! You can also head on over and Like my Photography & Design Facebook Page.

I decided to share another photo of guess who? My little guy of course! The boy loves the water and what better way to experience Summer than to get wet! =) Have fun and make sure you link up before judging on Saturday night!

We don't have a prize for you this week but link up your edit and come back for the Winners post on Tuesday and there will be a little happy for everyone! 

Here are the details:

This challenge is all about taking a photo and making it your own with the editing program of your choice! It is also about learning a little bit from each other, and exploring new styles! There are no restrictions (unless specifically stated within the post for the week), but we do ask that you share a little bit about how you arrived at your finished product.

1. When you link up, please use your edited photo as the thumbnail!
2. If you use the mouseover code or right-click protect your images, you need to either add a copy to the flickr pool (preferred) or it will be assumed that you agree to allow us to use a screenshot of your entry if you are a winner!
3. The judge for the week will choose the top 3 edits from the entries, and the overall winner of the 3 
4. If you would like to post multiple edits, specify which one is your choice for judging. Only one photo is eligible for judging, and it must be clear which one you are entering.
5. Don't forget so share your editing steps, or some tips and tricks so we can learn from each other!
6. Don't forget to use the #editmechallenge tag when you share your posts on Twitter. 
7. The linky will open at the time of the post on Wednesday, and close the following Saturday at 11:59 PM (central time).
8. Winners will be announced the following Tuesday.
9. Don't forget to visit the other participants, and leave some comment love! As usual, the more you participate the more feedback you will get!

So, there you have it! Have fun, and can't wait to see what you come up with!
