The May 6th meeting is a very important meeting for the club as we will have 3 very important votes.  First we will be voting for the NVPS Board members for the 2008-2009 club year.  Second we’ll be voting on changes to the rules of competition and third we will be voting on amendments to the constitution of NVPS.

The nominations are in and were announced at the March 11th meeting for the 2008-2009 NVPS Board and were published in the April Fotofax.  No additional nominations have been received and the election will occur at the May 6th Program meeting and the election will be by a voice vote since no additional nominations have been made.  I would like to thank the nominating committee of Sam Schaen and Fred Chitty for bringing together a well qualified slate of candidates:

Board Nominations for 2008 -2009

President: Tom Brett
Co-VPs Competitions:  Sandi Croan & Matthew Schmidt
VP Programs:  Mary O'Neill
Treasurer: Fred Chitty
Secretary/Historian: Terri Klinkosz 

On April 13, 2008 the NVPS Board met to discuss business of the club.  A discussion of amendments to the competition rules consumed a significant portion of the meeting and this will result in our recommendation for modification to the rules to reduce the number of images from a maximum of 4 images per competition to a maximum of 3 per competition.  Over the last few years it has become a struggle to provide enough time during competitions to allow judges to provide quality commentary and from time to time the judges have been rushed to get through the large number of images.  This change is consistent with the least objectionable change indicated by the membership poll performed earlier this year. Our Vice-President of Competition, Amie Tannenbaum, will be bringing forward this amendment to the rules for vote by the membership during the May 6th program meeting. The text of the changes can be found later in this issue.

Finally there are amendments to the NVPS Constitution and By-Laws which I brought before the Board at the April 13th meeting to bring them up to date and in line with the way the club is currently being operated.  As changes have occurred in the club over the past years, these changes were not reflected in this important document which is the basis for many club activities. 

The changes to the Constitution and By-Laws include:

1. Various grammatical changes have been made, some language has been made simpler and ambiguity in some statements has been removed
2. We no longer have junior memberships but now have student memberships
3. We no longer mail the newsletter, but now deliver it exclusively through the web and email
4. A number of board members have been added to the structure of the club to support a variety of activities
5. The VP of Competition is no longer responsible for the coordination of the End of Year Banquet

On Tuesday May 6th we will have a vote on these changes which require a two-thirds majority of membership in attendance for the changes to be accepted. It is an important night to have your vote heard and shape the future of NVPS.

We’ll see you at the club!

Except for the April 29th meeting, we will be present EVERY TUESDAY from now until the conclusion of the May 20th competition in order to collect and box up those winning entries. No further entries will be accepted once the May competition meeting is over. Check-in sheets will be provided for members to sign-in their images; a carousel tray will be available for film slides; digital slides are already on file and only need to be "signed in" on the checklist.

Digital Projection Competition
Resizing Images for the Club Projector

Over the past couple of months we have had several club members who had difficulty resizing their images for competition, so I thought that it was time again to provide a summary of why and how to resize images.

The “why” is pretty simple.  PowerPoint is the application that we use for competition judging projects slides at 1024x768 pixels, which is the maximum native resolution of our projector.  If your image is not the correct size, then it will be scaled by PowerPoint to fit the projector resolution.  PowerPoint uses a fast scaling algorithm, which is excellent for presentations, but can ruin a projected photograph.  During the scaling process, it is possible to loose shadow detail and sharpness, so unless you are projecting an abstract with a soft focus or little detail, your photograph will probably suffer significantly and be rejected by the judge.  At the very least it will not be a very accurate depiction of what you intended to show.

There are numerous ways in which club members use to resize their images, but I will describe the most common that I have seen.  The first is simply setting the image size, the second is by using the crop tool.  Both methods can yield an image that is within the limits of competition and either may work for you.

First, regardless of which method that you use, you should start with the best copy of the image that you have.  I typically save my processed RAW images as TIFF files, either at full capture resolution or cropped minimally to make the horizon level.  My TIFF master file is where I always start this process.To resize an image using Photoshop's Image Size function: Open the image. Select Image, Image Size... A dialog will open showing the current image size.

If you are resizing a landscape format image, simply set the Width to 1024 If you are resizing a portrait format image, simply set the Height to 768. Make sure that Bicubic is the selected resampling method. If you prefer not to handle resizing and sharpening as separate functions, you can choose Bicubic Sharper, which will automatically apply sharpening to the resized image. Press the OK button. To resize an image using the crop tool: Select the Crop Tool (see image to right).

Set the image size constraints:

For a landscape format image with an arbitrary height, put 1024 in the Width field and leave the Height field blank.

For a portrait format image with an arbitrary width, put 768 in the Height field and leave the Width field blank.

Click and hold in one corner and then drag toward the opposite corner.  You can adjust the size and placement of the “box” containing the image that will be displayed.

Press the Enter key to complete the crop.

With both methods, the image generally still needs to be sharpened.  Sharpening helps to increase the amount of contrast, but can create “halos” if applied too generously.

If you are using an application other than Photoshop to resize your images and you are having difficulty, please feel free to email or call me.

Competition Upload

Images for Digital Competitions must be uploaded by 6 PM on the Sunday preceding the competition. The upload location is: http://nvps.org/dc/. Help for uploading can be found at: http://nvps.org/main//misc/digital-competition-info/ .

People Photography Through the Years
Fred Chitty

An NVPS member since 1995, Fred Chitty first became interested in photography in his 8th grade shop drafting class, where he constructed and used a "pin hole" camera. Watching the image come up in a tray of developer was the magic that captured his interest. During college, he worked part time at the campus photo lab, which provided great experience and a solid technical background, both in the "wet" darkroom and behind the camera, using everything from 35 mm to 4x5 view cameras. The "preferred" field camera of his boss was the 4x5 "speed" Graphflex. A great bonus to the job included a small group session with Ansel Adams. Today he is amazed to reflect upon the fact that in 1968, when 35mm film "SLR" cameras were the new rage (e.g. Pentex Spotmatic), his boss, a former Kodak research chemist who worked on Kodachrome slide film development, predicted that digital imaging would replace film in Fred's lifetime.

Fred has been a serious amateur photographer, on and off, over the past 25 years. His choice of camera, darkroom equipment and subject matter have been eclectic as he has sought out new learning experiences over the years. Macro techniques and flash lighting are two areas he is happy to provide subject matter advice. While he currently shoots both 35 mm film and digital with Nikon equipment, he still considers himself a beginner with Adobe Photoshop.

The May Forum presentation--People Photography Through the Years--will showcase Fred's favorite people portraits, and Fred will discuss techniques for improving portrait photography using both single and multiple portable flash units. Use of simple, relatively inexpensive, fill reflectors, umbrellas, diffusors will also be covered in this presentation, as will the use of flash to color backgrounds.

Charles Kirksey - Digital Projection

Charles is originally from Clovis, New Mexico. He served in the U. S. Navy as a communications officer for three years from 1968-1971. He resides with his wife and son in Oakton, Virginia. He is now a practicing family dentist in Fairfax, Virginia. In the orthodontic and cosmetic portion of his practice, he makes many clinical photographic progress records of patients on a daily basis. In the mid-nineties he developed an interest in scuba-diving and underwater photography. For several years he specialized in photographing the undersea life at a number of "wall-diving" sites in the Caribbean.

John Naman - Prints

John became interested in photography and the lens as a child. In high school, he became immersed in the B&W darkroom and eventually became the lead photographer for the yearbook. In 2002, John began experimenting with digital color photography. More recently, he returned to black-and-white work. Over the past few years, about half the photos explore the beauty of flowers and nature, while the other half explore light, form, and unusual subjects. After moving to Virginia, John joined NVPS in November 2007 and has been competing as a novice.

Portfolio Project
Sherwin Kaplan

The May 13th Workshop meeting will be dedicated to concluding the Portfolio Project.  At the beginning during an informal session the printed portfolios will be displayed on the tables for everyone to review and discuss with the photographers.  Once the formal session begins, all portfolio photographers will be given an opportunity to make a few comments regarding their Artist's Statements and images. All portfolio images then will be projected for the group.  Sherwin Kaplan, our judge, will discuss his judging process.  He will conclude by presenting several “Best Portfolio of 2008” awards. This meeting should be fun for both portfolio participants and others who did not participate this year. We hope our club and members will be encouraged to repeat this project next program year. As usual, this workshop will be at Dunn Loring Fire Station starting at 7:30 PM. If you have questions contact Paul Simmons or Bill Prosser.

If you have questions you may contact us by email or phone:

Constitutional amendments of 04/07/2008

At the April 12th Board meeting, the Board agreed to put three motions before the general membership. Any approved changes become effective for the 2008-2009 club year.

Motion #1 limiting total number of entries

The NVPS Board voted to amend Part I, Paragraph C, Eligibility, sentence #2 of the current Rules of Competition. This is consistent with the least objectionable change indicated by the majority of the membership in this year's poll.

Current language:

"Each member may submit up to two (2) entries per competition in any Class/Category in which they are eligible but may enter no more than four (4) in any one monthly competition."

Proposed language:

"The total number of images each member may enter in any one monthly competition is limited to three (3); no more than two (2) of these entries may be submitted in any single Class/Category in which they are eligible."

Rationale:

Due to an ever-increasing membership and related rise in the numbers of competition entries, the NVPS Board seeks to preserve the integrity of the competition experience by insuring that adequate time be available for helpful comments and careful decision-making during the judging process.

Motion #2 re: Over-submissions

The NVPS Board recommends the following addition to Part IV, Paragraph C Questions of Eligibility and Disqualification:

"Any member who submits more than the maximum allowed total entries in any one monthly competition will forfeit ALL points for that month."

Rationale:

This amendment was proposed to clarify what should be done in the event a member submits more images than permitted in a competition.

Motion #3 re Time-Dated entries

The NVPS Board recommends that Part I, Paragraph D Subject Matter be amended so that ALL competitions are time-dated.

Current language:

"Subject matter, theme, and artistic presentation are the choice of the photographer. However three of the monthly competitions will have an assigned topic or theme and a time constraint. The time limit will be that an image must have been captured, or in the case of Enhanced Prints created, within two years of the competition date."

Proposed language:

"Subject matter, theme, and artistic presentation are the choice of the photographer. However three of the monthly competitions will have an assigned topic or theme and all competitions will have a time constraint. All elements of competition entries must have been captured within two years of the monthly competition date." [Remainder of the paragraph is unchanged.]

Rationale:

The Board felt that new work should be encouraged by extending time limits to all competitions.

Photographers of Northern Virginia

Repeat programs of Photographers of Northern Virginia are now being shown on a regular basis on Fairfax Public Access Channel 30 every Monday at 3:30 p.m. and every Friday at 3 p.m. They will no longer be shown on Channel 10.

The May schedule is as follows:

The schedule can also be found on the NVPS website (http://nvps.org/main/upcoming/tv_program_photographers_of_no/).

In March, I told about the PSA Conference tours, but the details of the programs had not been released. Now they have, and here are a few instructional programs that caught my eye: “Rust, Rubbish and Reflections–finding unusual compositions in unlikely places,” “Studio Portraiture–Mysteries Revealed,” “Mylar Magic (Workshop),” “Nemo and Friends” (how to do underwater macro photography!), “Digital Black and White Photography,” “A 101 Tutorial on HDR (High Dynamic Range),” “F8 and Be There: Strategies for Being in the Right Place at the Right Time.”

Then there are a range of shows, including award winning essays in the Color Projected Image Division (used to be the Color Slide Div.) and the Nature Division, a variety of programs in the Photo Travel Division and the Photojournalism Division’s Photo Story winners.  All the Divisions will be showing winners and accepted works from their sections of the 2008 PSA International Exhibition. For more about the conference, go to http://www.psa-photo.org/.  Take time to look at the slide show.  Then find the logo for the conference (shown above) and click on “Conference Details.”
