Wax On Film: Photograph your own collection...

Wax On Film: Photograph Your Own Record Collection (http://dreamsinaudio.com/).....

and win some stuff.

Interesting competition put together by the very excellent FleaMarket Funk (http://fleamarketfunk.com/) and
inspiring Dust and Grooves (http://www.dustandgrooves.com/)blogspots. (which I'm still grateful to Ben Hatton for directing me towards it)

I'm desperately trying to think up a uniquely UK way to photograph some records that doesn't include the Queen, Carry On films or football. :rolleyes:

Odd concept for a comp, but I can't wait to see the results for the recordporn factor alone.

Take the picture with a pinhole camera hidden in a bowler hat? Or have a Beefeater guarding the raer's? How about artfully arranging In a skip outside the shell of an abandoned PFI project?;)

This is good. :)

I'm playing around with doing a little something with a full run of TOTPs lps or Hot Hits (easier, cos there are fewer). I think I'm going to try and contact either Caroline Munroe or the ubiquitous blonde who appears on the covers of numerous Hot Hits / Chico Arnez / Parade of the Pops lps. I'm sure they'd be up for a photo session with a nerd who wants to win a prize.:rolleyes:

I seem to recall Lord Thames knew the name of the Chico Arnez girl.

With a list of excuses as long as my nose (forumusic forum crash / schoolwork to mark / Open Evenings / Photographing various school events...) I didn't get my poop in a group to enter this competition but it looks like quite a few people did.

Big Up! to Jamison / DJ Prestige from Fleamarket Funk for not making excuses and organising it. Winners haven't been announced yet but there's a lot of record pron to see in the entries.
