During the 2022 Region 15 Fall Meeting in Lumberton, a motion was made and carried to create a new category for the Carolina Digital Photo Contest. This new category will accommodate art that is created "unnaturally" by the photographer, using techniques such as collaging, extreme color enhancement, and image modification. Software such as PhotoShop and PowerPoint are making it possible for pretty much anyone in the region to create these types of photos and interest in this unique art created is increasing.
Here is a complete description:
Daylilies from a Different Point of View – This new category features manipulated images created by combining elements from more than one image or by obvious changes in color, form, shape, or any combination thereof to create a unique final photo . All original images used/combined must have been taken by the final image creator. Daylilies or Region 15 members must be dominant in the final image, with preference given to Region 15-hybridized daylilies.
To accommodate those who may want to enter photos in this new category, we're extending the deadline for the 2022 Carolina Digital Photo Contest to December 31, 2022. To submit your entries, send them as attachments or provide a link to where they are stored to the photo contest chair, Kathy Tinius, at ktinius@yahoo.com.
