CLUB FOCUS
A ''nature photograph" is
defined as one in which a natural subject is the main and dominant theme or
focus of interest. Typically, nature photographs contain no or very little
evidence of people or "man-made' objects. Photographs displayed at club
meetings or in club sponsored exhibits or activities must reflect the club's
focus of nature photography.
Each member may submit up
to ten photographs to be displayed. We encourage you to display new material,
photos which have never been shown before at the mall. Each member is assigned
an identification number which is placed on each photograph. If you need one,
let Beth know.
The display is to be
manned at all times to comply with our contract with the Quinte Mall. A
sign-up sheet will be available at the January meeting for you to pick a time
