To Enter the Digital Image Competition:
To enter the Digital Image Competition, you must email you entries to Jim Wells our Vice President of Compititions at: sfmsap@aol.com
All entries must be received the weekend prior to the Monthly meeting.
When you save your images Save As. (your name) J.Doe_03_12_T_(print_title).jpg. O=open, SS=special subject.
The key thing to keep in mind when formatting photos for submission is that the projector we use in the competitions has a (maximum) resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. This means that any photo that exceeds this size in either dimension, could end-up being cropped by the projector. In other words: the image Width cannot be more than 1024 pixels -and- the image Height cannot be more than 768 pixels. Down-sizing the image from the "native" resolution coming out of your camera also significantly reduces the file size. This helps when emailing the files and takes-up less space in our hard-drives.
Winning Images wll be added the the Club's newsletter the Shutter Tripper and posted on the Club's Website.
