The field trip to the Ice Caves was a success. Eleven happy campers trekked to the caves and we'll all wait with baited breath for the slide show. For those that went, please submit your images ASAP for Bruce to whip into shape for next meeting. |

Just a quick reminder that the first competition of the year is an "Open" competition, meaning that there is no specific theme other than "Photographer’s Choice” This is an “easy” one. Submit what you think are your favorite bests, but remember only 2 entries per competition. Of course, you'll want to save your themed “bests” which might fit some of the specific categories in upcoming competitions (see resources section or club brochure for upcoming competitions). So what will you choose for this one ? It might be color, b&w, special effects, hdr, or just a photo you really like! Recall that all submissions are in the form of print. Print sizes must conform to 8x10 or 8x12 and can contain no matting/borders/text, etc ... If you have any specific questions on submissions, please contact Frank Loomer. Thanks All |
