LAST CALL for SMALL PRINT entries

Calling ALL club class members.

Just a reminder that next Thursday 6th October is the deadline for entries into October’s SMALL PRINT competition, open to all club class members except previous winners. Three images may be entered with your name and image title on the reverse (be careful not to damage your print or to use a pen that transfers easily to other photographs) It will be judged on Thursday 13th October by members of the selection committee.

A brief explanation of the rules for the benefit of NEW MEMBERS : Prints must be 7″ by 5″ or less and unmounted. The competition gives a gentle introduction to camera club competitions but does not exclude you from also entering the main club competitions, but with different images. There will be no scores and 3 winners will be chosen to go forward into the final competition in the Spring to decide an overall winner for the year. Prints can be straight from the camera or use  minimal digital manipulation, such as exposure and basic colour correction. However cloning etc is not allowed, although a very small amount of cropping is OK. Your prints can be from negatives or digital files and can be commercially printed at outlets such as Boots or Jessops. You may also print your own if you have the facilities. A full set of rules can be found on the ‘Competition Rules’ tab on the website.

I should be grateful if all images could be given to me before the start of the meeting on 6th October so that I can display them in the small hall to be admired by everyone at the coffee break. If you have any problems getting images to me then please feel free to contact me via the details on the programme card so that we can arrange something.

Hoping to see lots of new and exciting images. LINDA BULLIMORE.
