To the WFS membership, from John Maunder:
Again, this year I will be putting together a VIRTUAL (i.e. "Zoom") end-of-season "Member's Slide Show".
It is our yearly opportunity to share what we did, or saw, botanically, during the preceding season (or seasons).
The next show is tentatively set to be the subject of our February meeting [please stay tuned for further details].
As always, we NEED YOUR PHOTOS!
So, please, don't be shy! ...
While photos should be more-or-less "presentable", they don't need to be of "professional quality"! ... [Note that I can usually tweak them a bit, if necessary].
So ... Get rummaging through your hard drives, and send me your favourite and/or most interesting, images, and associated stories.
"The Rules" are essentially the same as they have been in the past.
1. Up to FIFTEEN-ish photos per person. No categories. No dates. No geographical restrictions (they don't have to be from Newfoundland and Labrador).
2. The focus of submitted photos should, however, be botanical.
3. A brief description of each image, describing "where, when, and what (if you know)", will add value to your submissions.
4. Please note that by keeping the number of photos, per person, down to fifteen-ish, I hope that the show will be less tiring, and much more enjoyable.
5. Nevertheless, if required, in order to either augment or streamline the presentation, I will reserve the right to edit the total number of photos.
6. As for photo size, please send full-sized images ... I will make any needed adjustments when I receive your photos (but, please try to keep the total size of any single e-mail post down to about 15 MB, so that you will not "break" my mail system)
7. Note that, at the very latest, your contributions should be received by December 15 ... But, the earlier, the better.
8. Please send all of your photo contributions to me (John Maunder), by [1] e-mail to John (jem@nl.rogers.com) [use attachments, or remote server links (i.e. WeTransfer, DropBox, etc.)]; or [2] "snail-mail me a thumb drive or a CD/DVD (to "John Maunder, P. O. Box 250, Pouch Cove, NL A0A 3L0").
GET SORTING!
Don't delay. The New Year will soon be upon us!
Looking forward to seeing your images.
Your humble compiler.
JOHN
