i would love to do a few pics of Honey in a garden i think they'd look fab problem is i dont have one lol i live in a 1 bed flat so im having to try my best with pics inside im sure il still end up with a few good ones to send in though its all just for a bit of fun Honey will be competing against so many Gorgeous buns!

Aww she is lovely

she is very pretty

OK... I'll try and be helpful!

I often like to get at the same level as the animal (often involves laying down on my front!)

Your biggest problem inside will be getting enought light - if you can use a well lit room, but I would avoid taking the photos in direct strong daylight as you may burn out the hightlights! Not sure what settings you have on your camera?

I believe that the photos is going to be used on the front cover (just got my copy of Bunny Mad), so you may want to think of a portrait orientated photograph? Also possibly leave enough room at the top for the title of the magazine and maybe the bottom for other "words". I'm sure any orientation of photograph will work that's just my opinion!

If you are restriced to inside photos perhaps think of some funny props? Have a look at BiBi, they are always great and imaginative (I have NO imagination).

Other than that, always have you camera out and ready (not on display of course it may get stollen :shock: ), then if you notice a cute pose you can snap away!

It's very exciting, the prizes are great... I'm sure we will all be snapping away!

If all else fails - hire a professional - (er... not really I think that's against the rules!!)

Good luck and remember to have fun!

It looks like she loves the camera. She's very cute .

I love your piccies, cute bunny! and so pleased you are going to enter the competition! Willow warrens tips are great. My main tip would be that the photos need to be as clear as possible and saved on your computer at the highest resolution possible and preferrably as a JPEG format.
Like you say it is just for fun!! and there is 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th prizes and I will also be printing my favourite piccies in the centre pages too, so even if you didn't win you may still get to make you bunny a star!
Please evrybunny get snapping!! all those gorgeous bunnies out there just waiting to be a star!

thanks the tips :thumb: i should be in a house with a garden before the 1st of August so i should be able to get a few good pics of Honey in the garden to send in to be honest im using this competition as a way of bonding with Honey which is working because shes now starting to lick my hand im having fun taking pics as well which is good
