This is our first interactive Critique of club member images this year!
Our Critiquer is Dave Burwell. He will be offering input on our images. The photographer can ask questions of the speaker, and visa versa.

From his site: "I live in Princeton, New Jersey, where I am President of the Princeton Photography Club, and I offer in-person and online group classes and individual instruction in photography and photo editing. In my teaching, I focus on both the art and craft of photography, and encourage each student's exploration of their own creativity.
Photographically, I’m drawn to the subtle details, continuous change, and connectedness of all things found in nature. I also enjoy photographing shapes, tones, colors, and textures that can lead to unusual perspectives in familiar places or new discoveries in unfamiliar surroundings."
We used to ask for the 'not perfect' images. Now we can add other images, but it's always best to look for some input that could improve an image. It's up to you. Introduce yourself as the photographer and you may choose to address any concern with the image. Dave may offer you suggestions about processing, cropping or anything that he might feel worth mentioning. His input has always been appreciated.
NOTE: You should be present in the meeting if you intend to interact with the critiquer.
DEADLINE: Submit one or two images by Saturday, 5PM February 15th. You could submit the same image with two different crops if you wish.
NAMING: A critique is interactive, so the naming is really simple. Just use your first name and last initial and number. Save as a '.jpg', or '.jpeg' and upload to the website. (ie., DianneR01.jpg and if adding another, show DianneR02.jpg)
SIZE: Horizontal/wide 1600 px OR for a vertical/tall (or your 'square-ish image) use 1200 px. TIP: Make sure that your image size is not over 2MP; the uploader may have difficulty with larger images and will probably fail. Resize your image and watch that the MP do not exceed 2MP.
FORMAT: Jpeg (Jpg)
UPLOAD: Use the uploader on the website. Click on Member Log In (not the drop down). It will pull up the page requesting that you provide your UN and PW. If you don't remember your UN, contact Dianne Rose. She can give this information to you. If you don't remember your PW, you can enter your UN and request to change your PW. (Be creative; we have had our problems in the past with 'simple' passwords.)
If you have any problems, contact Dianne Rose or Janet Hickey, preferably via phone based on how quickly you need help!
