With 60 “Seashore” images we had a good competition last night. Again it is not just the winners who should be proud of their images – the overall standard of the entries was great. (See Seashore Competition Images)
For me there were a number of “abstract” images that I really liked and which demonstrates the creativity within the club. I wish I had checked on who the judge was before I put in my entries, an image of Exmouth for a judge from Exmouth wasn’t the best idea!
One consistent message from last nights critique is that the little details matter (and not just wonky horizons). When I am judging I find that once I see something that detracts from the main thrust of the image (like a dust spot or a stray foot protruding into the edge of the image or a bright spot away from the main subject) I keep on coming back to it at the expense of the rest of the image.
March 4th is our next meeting with a presentation from Richie Johns and Nick Green, both great photographers from Plymouth Camera Club. It is also the hand in date for our next competition “Film Titles”
