This month’s challenge subject is “Flowers”.
I thought that this subject would give everyone, where ever you are, the best opportunity to be able to post a pic. You may interpret this in any way you wish. Single bloom, macro, wild, arranged etc. I await with anticipation to see what you come up with!
Judging will be based on:
* fulfilling the brief.
* a good photo based on composition, focus and consideration to the light.
* having impact. Will I remember your image after I go away from the computer?
Once the deadline closes, I will go away and review all images and select a top 3 (gold, silver and bronze) with a winner based on the criteria stated above.
The usual rules apply:
• One picture per person; images should conform to general image posting rules.
• All entries to be shot with a Canon EOS camera i.e. SLR / DSLR / M / R series but can use any make of lens.
• Posted images should be taken during the running period of the competition. Any images submitted that were taken before the competition started, or after the competition has ended, will be deemed invalid.
• Images 800 pixels widest maximum (to help those with small monitors).
• Points will be awarded towards the overall year award - Gold wins 50 points, Silver 40 points and Bronze 30 points and all other entries will be awarded 20 points. These points will be accumulated over the year and provide a leader board through the year.
• No frames or borders.
• Include a title; the image must convey the theme, and if you want a short description.
• Please, NO comments on images - on this or another thread- until the round is over.
• No canvassing e.g. “I’m thinking of posting this image for the challenge, what do you think?”
• I will pick 1st, 2nd and 3rd favourite images (please don’t contact me to discuss my choices). I’m not a trained judge but will try and be fair in my judging.
The closing date for the Challenge is midnight (GMT) on 23rd May 2024.
