While working with a large number of photos in real estate photography, we often need to give the same editing effects to all of them. Doing so allows us to achieve a homogeneous look to a batch of photos. Let us walk through how to copy edits in Lightroom to process multiple images simultaneously.
The Still Photographer of the Month contest for June will now be located at PFREcontests.com rather than the Flickr group.
This move will allow entrants to post their own entries and remain anonymous. Jurors will then choose a winner from a collection of anonymous entries. People have been asking for this approach for a while.
There are a couple of things I don't like about this Photo Contest WordPress plugin I'm using but I think we can live with them just to have entrants anonymous. This plugin is the only reasonable alternative I can find.
The things I don't like are:
If we decide to use this plugin going forward, I'll work on fixing these issues. For now, I'd just like to see how this works to run the still contest.
A couple of the jurors have tried this site out and given me feedback and it is now set up and ready to accept entries for the June contest.
To submit an entry to the contest just do the following:
I think it is pretty intuitive and easy to use. Let me know if you have any problems.
Thanks Larry for doing this!
Yes, Larry, thank you. I think it is a very positive move for the contest.
you 'dah bomb Larry! TY!!
This competition lost credit ability when it stopped being anonymous and there was definitely a bias towards those entries submitted by 'recognised names' and as such it's results less meaningful. I learned a huge amount from this group in the early days from shared technique and positive advice/critique which has resulted in a full diary and an amazing career following Cancer diagnosis 10yrs ago. Larry has always been the utmost professional in his approach and this is a great move forward which will encourage those just starting out to get involved just as I did at a time when I was almost embarrassed to call myself a photographer....Mike
