That should take you to the submission page.  Hints...don’t forget to click on the log on link above the information requested section.

 I will also point out that on any given topic only three photos are permitted.  For example if you decide to tackle the “Barns” category and you have located your barn then you have three shots to get it right. Once you have your three shots “in the can” so to speak then you can submit only one of the three in competition.

This is an honor system.  You are free to enter a picture in each of the ten categories.  The trick is to try to capture an engaging picture in as many of the ten categories as you can but remember…you only have thirty shots to do it all.  In the days of film it was a lot easier to verify and perhaps more of a challenge because each participant received only one 36 exposure roll of film and we were given twelve categories to shoot and on the due date all film would be bulk processed.  Your exposure and composition had to be right on back then.  I wonder, do they make 30 exposure media cards?

I apologize for any inconvenience.  Respectfully,

Ken Knight]]>Fri, 11 May 2012 20:08:18 -0500http://www.hrdshutterbugclub.org/1/post/2012/05/may-11th-2012-newsletter.htmlClick HERE to view the newsletter

Thank you all for your patience over the past couple of weeks.  Exams are over and grades have been posted much to the dismay of my students. I'm back on track and attached you will find our latest abbreviated newsletter… It is only four pages this time.

Voting for the April f-64 Challenge has been closed.  Once again one vote can and does make a difference.  Thank you to all who participated. Winners will be announced at our next meeting.

I hope to see everyone next Wednesday evening in the Holly Room between 6 and 7 p.m.  Meeting starts at 7 p.m. and Kemp Savage will be our guest speaker and his topic will be "Bold Blooms - A Process to make photographs of flowers appear to leap off the print.

See everyone there,

Ken Knight

I am sending you this e-mail as you have provided pictures for the past exhibits.

 We have a very large task as there are about 250 feet of wall space witha short time to put this together. We hope tostart hanging on May 18th and May 19th with possible dates of May 22nd, May 23rd , and May 24th.
 

The Boat House plans to open on either May 24th or 25th. The exhibit will run until about the first week in December 2012.
 

The frame size is unlimited - all sizes will work. The subject of the pictures is to be nautical/tidewater/wine/food/coastal wildlife etc.
 

There is no limit on the number of pictures each member can submit for the exhibit.
 

Please e-mail the card info to John Corley as soon as you can in order to get some of the cards printed before the hanging dates and so we can also get an estimate of the number of pictures we will have.
 
Thanks, John]]>Wed, 09 May 2012 20:02:16 -0500http://www.hrdshutterbugclub.org/1/post/2012/05/2012-photo-hunt.htmlThe 2012 Photo Hunt has begun!  See the attachment for the rules and topics.   A 3” x 5” topic card has been included for your convenience.
