Hi. I was at the Canon Photo seminar this afternoon. Thought I'll share the info they announced.
According to the organisers, there's no pre-registration shortlisting. So basically, once you registered, you're in. But nothing was mentioned abt restriction on foreigners. It's weird to have that restriction. I remember there were quite a few foreigners (ang mohs) last year.
So far 600+ have registered, so do expect a very large crowd. Signing in starts at 8am and 1st assignment will be given out at 9am.
Their advise is not to drive since there's a limited numbers of carpark lots in ACS. The neighbourhood is residential so not many public carpark lots available. And it so happened that next Sat is the PSLE briefing for parents, so there's definitely going to be a parking problem.
As for file size, preferably limit to 1600x1200. You'll be given 3 mins to view your all your photos on screen and choose the best to be uploaded. If need be, they'll help you to resize your large images to approx 1600x1200. Re-sizing is not considered as editing so it's acceptable.
Editing, such as adjustment of contrast etc, is not encouraged. No one is going to stop you if you bring your own laptop to do editing. So it boils down to integrity and spirit of competition.
