2021 Photo Rally
Dear members,
Due to lockdown we have cancelled what we had planned for this year. So this year’s photo rally will be:
Still Life
Still life is a work of art that focuses on inanimate subjects. Usually, the subjects are commonplace objects. That can include both manmade objects (such as vases, items of clothing, and consumer products) and natural objects (like plants, food, rocks, and shells). This can also be for commercial purposes ie magazine, newspaper and general advertising shots.
Images must be taken between 20th July 2021 until the competition cut-off date of the 28th of August 2021.
A presentation has been created by Phil Weir and can be found on the Members Resources page.
BE CHALLENGED! DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT! THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!
I look forward to seeing everyone’s photos Monday night 30th August.
Don’t forget the next competition is Open & Set-Macro.
Stay well.
