The digital themes for Quarter 2 are:
Outings Panorama Window Light
- OUTINGS
Images in the Outings category can be any type of image, edited in any way you wish and must have been captured at a JCC outing or event. - PANORAMA
The Panorama theme should be comprised of at least three separate images and those images could be taken vertically or horizontally of any type of subject.
If you need a refresher course or an entire education on how to create a panorama, links to tutorials are available in the JCC library.

Window light should be the main source of light for the image. Reflectors can certainly be used but one source of natural lighting should be evident in the image.
Digital themes for 2018 were revised in November, 2017, adding general or outing categories to each quarter in the hopes of encouraging new and not-so-new members to participate in the contests. Digital contest rules and themes for 2018 are listed on the website: Contest|All Contests|Digital Contest. 2018 themes are also shown at bottom of this blog.
As with all other digital themes, images should have been taken only during the current year and the two previous years (2016, 2017 and 2018). Ensure that the date/ year on your camera(s) is correct. Images not conforming to year requirements will not be entered.
The judge for the second quarter is Christine Cook!
