Charlie Chaplin: infos

Happy New Year to everyone !

Congratulations to the winners.

They have been calculated/determined by your ratings and level of participation (the more rates the more weight your vote had on the average).

1St Prize : Meeximus.

Apart from the image she has won for (this beautiful evocation of “Gold Rush”) you’ll find on her personal page a great set of fun and creative pictures.

PS : don’t forget to click on the pictures to enlarge them.

2nd Prize h_essay

h_essay has many great pictures as well, we find both touching and funny (like the one where she makes a face at Buster Keaton). And we would like to thank her for the refreshing enthusiasm she has shown on our website.

3rd Prize silent_twenties

silent_twenties made a great homage to “the kid”, we believe it’s a shame they didn’t get better ratings, she still has won the third prize for this very Chaplin-like picture of the little tramp sleeping on a bench.

4th Prize : dingoesatmycamera

dingoesatmycamera finally fourth prize for this well designed picture echoing a famous picture of Charlie Chaplin in his 50s. Great work!

We thank all of you for your photos, enthusiasm and homage to Charlie Chaplin.

Keep in touch, we hope to organize a new competition soon…

After the winners have been officially notified, will you be posting the winning photos? It would be nice to see them in order of their placement.

Hello silent twenties ! Our webmaster is on vacation until Monday. I will ask him if he can do it. I hope so.

Thank you! Also, I do not know if anyone read my blog concerning this, but I was wondering how I would possibly get permission to show a couple of Chaplin films or some shorts at a local art gallery (no admission charged). Any idea who I would contact to request permission? I was thinking of The Kid, One A.M., and Monsieur Verdoux (my personal favorites). I know an art gallery owner who would be glad to host the event. By the way, I am in Panama City, Florida, USA. Thank you!
