| Competition: | Straight out of the Camera (Digitals) |
| Date: | Thursday 4th January 2024 |
| Entry: | 3 Images |
| Guidelines: | The spirit of this competition is very simple, images must be taken on a camera with absolutely no manipulation allowed. Enter the image that resulted when you pressed the shutter, so not even cropped. Use of in-camera filters, such black-and-white, dramatic lighting, etc are not permitted. The only exception is to resize to 1600 x 1200 pixels, nothing else. |
