Old Collegians' is looking for all those
budding photographers out there, as well as those of you who have managed to
capture a fantastic fluke shot.
We started this last year with some notable photos being
submitted. Send us
your favourite photographs of Old Collegians' (particularly playing shots,
but not necessarily exclusively so). Photos will be uploaded to the website
and the web editor, because he lives interstate and can't be bribed or beaten, will pick the favourite each week of the playing season to
be displayed prominently on the website and in our clubrooms, with the lucky
photographer also winning a prize. The web editor keeps his photos out
of this.
At the end of the season, we will pick
the best photo of the year for a grand prize! The comp starts in time for
the Adelaide 7s on the 2nd April.
If there aren't any decent photos in any week, then there won't be one
selected.
There'll be a catalogue of all photos & the winning photos will be accessible
from this page & from the front page.
No GIF files please or Bitmaps, and please no smaller than 1024 pixels wide, no
larger than 5000 pixels wide please & no emails coming over larger than 20
meg or so. That is, let me have some decent sized photos. A few last
year would have been good if they were a decent size. And with really
large ones it just means I'll have to resize. Some photos I'll run through
photoshop.
If you have trouble getting any photos onto the photos@oldcollegiansrugby.org.au
email address, please contact me at paul@oldcolls.org.au
