Image Study

Deadlines…

Generally, the deadline for image study nights is seven to ten days before the meeting at which images will be projected. Submitting member must be present to have her/his image critiqued.

Deadlines and genre for submission of images appear on the HDP Calendar.

Images will not be accepted after the deadline or on the evening of the meeting.

Categories Defined. . .

In 20111 HDP competition committee decided to include three additional genres for  future Image Study Nights. Portraiture, Monochromatic, and Architectural images. Starting in 2012, these three categories plus Nature will be part of our Competitions under the heading, Designated.

File Naming…

The coordinator must deal with a large number of image submissions in a short time.

Thus, in an effort to make the collection of images for projection run smoothly we have instituted file naming conventions for each of the two types of image reviews.

Following these conventions will make the life of the coordinator much easier!

For “image study nights”, files should simply be named:

 “01FirstnameLastname.jpg”

and

“02FirstnameLastname.jpg”.

Thus, if Jane Smith was submitting images the files would be named:

“01JaneSmith.jpg”

and

“02JaneSmith.jpg”

Image Preparation…

In order for your image to look its best when projected at a club meeting, it needs to be sized to fit our projector.

Currently images need to fit within an area 1024 pixels wide by 768 pixels high.

It is highly recommended that you re-sharpen your images after resizing them.
