November Program - Creative Crud

Our Program meeting on November 9 will feature the results of our Creative Crud exercise. We’ll view a slideshow of the fun and creative ways that our HPS members used their random Dollar Store item in their photography. A reminder for the members who are participating:

• Each participant will submit (1) one regular/straight photo to show and define the object.

• Each participant will also submit (3) three
additional photos that show your creativity with the object. These photo must include the object but you may use the whole object or a part of the object. It does not even have to be recognizable nor does it have to be the main subject of the photo. The photo does not have to show the object’s intended use.

• Your creativity must take place in the camera, not in Photoshop or any other such program. You may use these programs for basic corrections such as cropping, levels, etc. but you may not use digital filters, cloning, major color alternations, AI, etc.

• Your (4) photos must be submitted via e-mail to Chris Baker at knc82099@me.com before Nov. 7 using the same submission standards as you use for the monthly competitions.

JPEG images: maximum width 2800 pixels, maximum height 1600 pixels.

File name must be: first and last name with no spaces, a dash and then entry number.

Example: JohnDoe-1.jpg

We’ll also conduct some year-end HPS business with a member review and approval of next year’s budget, as well as an election of officers. For anyone interested in getting more involved, we have a vacancy on the board that we’d love to fill for next year. Please contact Chris Baker at knc82099@me.com for details.
