A lot of Mold members spend a fortune on workshops with models but thats not for me. I do like editing, I use On1photoRAW and Affinity Photo and love changing the look of the image. My Misty Tree got a commended last night. I will post the image plus the other 2 entries in the photo thread.
Sometimes the judge hasnt got a clue. I entered a formation of 3 Spitfires and he said that I had used a blur filter on the props when if he had looked at the exif he would have seen it was taken at 1/350th of a second.
The club has some very skilled (and award winning) nature and portrait photoraphers, and some who are excellent at landscapes and creative works. Over the past 6 or 7 years, I've almost exclusively submitted motorsport images for the competitions. Sometimes I do quite well, possibly as my work is something different to the more common nature, landscape and portrait entries, and sometimes very poorly. One judges comment was "it's a record shot of a motor car" and then went on to wax lyrical for 5 minutes about lovely feather detail and catchlights in a birds eye in what many thought was an average "bird on a stick" image.
I think some judges dont know what they are looking at
