Official, judged competition. Judge: Joshua Taylor, http://www.archiphotoworkshops.com/
Mr. Taylor has judged for us before, a few years ago, and did a superb job.
Theme is “Nature”:
Images that illustrate the natural features of land, sea, or sky, or that reveal certain natural phenomena such as cloud formations, precipitation, frost, fire, or which depict wildlife. The hand of man may be present as long as it enhances the theme of nature rather than detract. Examples include a small boat in a large lake, a fence in a distance, a path, etc.
*Please note that “detracting” hand of man in an image will be left to the judge’s discretion.
| April 9, 2008 |
| 6:30 pm | to | 9:00 pm |
