Club Meeting – 8 August 2012

This is the second round of selection for entries in the
Wellington Interclub Print Competition.

There is a slight change of plans. Tonight, it is again selection
of digital images.

Then on the 16th we will have a final round selecting the
prints that will be used.

Club Meeting – 25 July 2012

Well it is that time of the year for the Wellington Interclub Print
Competition.

Wellington Interclub – Initial Selection of Images

Topics for competition are:

Panning    Arrivals
Music      Three
Urban      Hands
Animals    Red, green, blue
Time       Abstract

As a club we have to choose one image for each category.
To get there we are are having two selection rounds:

Wednesday 25th July – Initial selection of 3 images per category
Wednesday 8th August – Final selection

This initial selection will be via digital or print (digital preferred)

You can each submit up to 3 images per category. We are only going to
select 3 in each categroy for the Final Selection. And for the Final
Selection on the 8th, hese 3 need to be printed up, but not necessarily
matted. For the Competition itself, the prints need to be matted.

Can you please size to 1024px on the longest side and name them as
follows (this will help enormously when loading to the laptop):
category_your_name_anything.jpg where category is one of:

    Panning    Arrivals
    Music      Three
    Urban      Hands
    Animals    RedGreenBlue
    Time       Abstract

e.g. panning_mark_berger_fast_car.jpg

Images can be from archive. The only thing is that they should not have
been shown at a previous interclub.

For the initial selection on 25 July we we will select the top 3 entries
for each category by popular vote.

For the final selection on 8 August, we will try and use an external
judge/selector.

For this final selection, images should be printed, but not necessarily
matted.
