the computer times photomarathon

[sehsuan]

curiously, the paper mentioned thematic shooting, but no genre was mentioned. as with all other contests of similar form, the copyright of all images taken will be copyright of the organizers, so who are those still keen on taking part?

 

[Ng Pei Sin]

I've signed up. Anyone else?

yup can set the camera's compression and resolution so that it fits the criteria... i think they set this rule cause they are looking for 3MP and above?

just a wild guess... but how they know it's not modified.... if i resize it? then change the meta data? who knows? hehe....

i think manipulation does not include resizing. Else very difficult. Probably meant they want a picture 'as you took it', ie no pimples removed, colours enhancement, polar bear in the desert kind of thing.

 

[sequitur]

does that mean no auto levels and auto contrast and auto color ?
