I read the rules. I think they are rather vague. Which rule did I violate? I am the rightful owner of that original picture which was taken with my camera. I don't see why it matters who was holding the camera. So, my lunch companion, who was holding the camera, could submit this and it would be legit?
By the way, this is rather lame on your part -- "No need to reply here, lets not derail this thread any further. "
If you didn't want to derail the thread, you could have sent me a private message. Instead, you used this thread to make TWO posts showing how smart you are and how much you know about the rules of this contest.
