MCC Trophy topic. Landscape (editing restrictions). You can submit up to 4 images for the Digital and Print MCC Trophy's.
The competition is NOT graded and NO points are awarded - so is different to the other monthly topics.
Two trophies are awarded: .
- The best print image trophy is the Elizabeth Davidson. Entries must adhere the below rules
- The best digital image trophy is the Barbara Wilson. Entries must adhere the below rules.
Seascapes cannot be of just water - to qualify it must have some land content.
Images that have been previously entered in any MCC as "Open" may be re-entered into the MCC Natural History Trophy Competition.
Two images per medium (prints and digital images) can be submitted for a total of four images, so a very unique opportunity.
Refer to the PSNZ rules: https://photography.org.nz/about/definitions/
Photographs that capture a sense of 'space' and 'place' and tell a story of the scene before the camera. A landscape may combine elements such as land, sea, bodies of water, and sk,y and may include human elements for scale and context, but not to the extent that the human element becomes the prominent element.
The integrity of the landscape at the time of capture must be maintained. The making of physical changes to the landscape, such as the introduction of new elements either from photographic sources or digital painting eg, adding in or replacing skies, foregrounds, birds, mists, sun, moon, sunrays, etc, or the deletion of significant objects, is NOT permitted.
Minor deletions of transient items, eg, a leaf, or stone, or dust spot, or litter, etc, are permitted if they do not impact the integrity of the scene. Digital adjustments, including dodging and burning, changes to tone and contrast, and cropping, are allowed, as are High Dynamic Range, stitched panoramas, and focus stacking.
