Attention ALL camera club members:

Beginning with the August 15th meeting, we will be posting the winning images on the club website.  Robert Dant will be providing the digital projection images to me for use on the website, so there is no additional work required of you to make that happen.  When we have print competitions, it will be YOUR responsibility to email me digital versions of your photos (winners only) to have them published on the website.  These images must be emailed to me within 48 hours of the competition.  Since competitions are on Wednesday night, I must receive the images by Friday night in order to get them published.  I will be posting the winners on the website two days after each meeting, or sooner if I get them earlier. 

These winning images will become part of a photo gallery on the website as well.  There will be two galleries.  The first gallery will contain winning images, and the second gallery will contain photos submitted to me from club field trips. 

All images submitted to me must be in the SAME format as required by the digital projection guidelines. 

Please email your images to john@setzler.net as soon as you have them available.

John M. Setzler, Jr.
