Dude, there is a reason this is in the Photography section.

The first three don't meet the rules either. Feel free to leave the last one.

I would have normally voted for the first one, but the photography forum is all business.

My friend, you've kind of limited us on aspect ratio. Why don't you say something like 1440p on the long side? That'll allow for square and all sorts of stuff in between. That'll still keep the size reasonable without forcing us to re-crop.

You're prize is that you get to chose the next contest theme.

No need to sit out. Most Smartphones have plenty of firepower. The subject and emotional content will be what wins this, not IQ in a 50" print.

Mauna Kea - Hawaii

A little explanation courtesy of Wikipedia and the Smithsonian:
- It began as a preshield volcano driven by the Hawaii hotspot around one million years ago
- Mauna Kea is the highest peak in the Hawaiian islands. Massive dormant volcano rises 13,796 feet (4,205 m) above sea level and in the winter its top is often blanketed in snow.
- Its summit is considered to be a most sacred—if not the most sacred—spot in the Hawaiian archipelago.
- Its rugged peak, covered in small cinder cones or puʻu, is the home to a handful of Hawaiian deities.
