At our  August meeting, we will be selecting seven images to submit to the PSA Region 21  (Wisconsin) Club Competition.  Each club member is asked to submit up to three  of his or her best images.  At the meeting club members will choose the best of  your three images and then pick seven images from the best from each member.   
Images  should be resized to the following specifications:  JPEG format, no more than  800 KB file size, 100 resolution and no larger than 1024 (horz) x 768 (vert)  pixels.  Images may not have watermarks or anything that identifies the maker.   If you can size your images, that would be great.  If you have trouble doing  this, do not let this stop you!  We want your images.  You can submit them in  whatever size you have, and if your image is selected I can resize it for you.   The important thing is we want everyone to participate!  
Since we  must submit seven images from seven different makers, everyone has a good chance  of having his or her image selected.  Everyone is strongly encouraged to  participate - especially newer members.  This is a good chance to get involved  and show your work to the club.
In order for the meeting to progress smoothly, I am asking that you  email your images to me prior to the meeting.  That way I can have them loaded  on my computer and avoid taking time at the meeting.
The meeting should be a lot of fun as we look at your  images.  I am looking forward to seeing images from  everyone!
After the selection is complete we will take time to look at some of  the images and offer gentle critique  This is a good learning  tool.
Looking ahead to our September meeting, we will be viewing  images from our photo scavenger hunt.  As a reminder, I have attached the  instructions for the scavenger hunt.  I hope everyone is having some fun with  this!
I have also attached information about the WACCO sponsored Birds of  Prey shoot on October 22nd.  If you want to get some good bird shots, give this  consideration.  
See you next Wednesday
