Competition Night

July 2019 Set Subject is “Altered Reality”.

Definition of Altered Reality:

An image that offers the viewer an “Altered Reality”. Meaning that you have manipulated multiple images so that that the work offers a believable alternative to what we know as ‘reality’. Just remember that the key words in this definition are:

  1. Believable. 2. Alternative. 3. Reality.

NOTE: This does not include taking an image and simply placing an ‘effects filter’ over it or adding “frames”. Your entry has to display your intention to challenge the viewer to believe in your new and altered reality.  Triptych will not be accepted.

NOTE: The Closing date for the July competitions is Midnight on Wednesday, June 12.

May 2019 Set Subject is “From a Poem”.

Definition of From a Poem: An image that has been inspired by a line of poetry. Preferably not the title, but from a line in a poem that you can capture in your image. How you approach this is fairly open, but remember to include your ‘one line of poetry’ in your final image. (but not your name or the name of the author). Hints: 1. Do not print the title. 2. Do not print a whole verse. 3. Those who have been with the club for some time, this is not one of your “pens and lens” images. 4. Those who have been in the club for a ‘while’, this is not one of your ‘song titles’ images. That means, create something NEW! (Triptych will not be accepted.)

NOTE: The Closing date for the May competitions is Midnight on Wednesday, April 10.
