Deadline for uploading photos is August 14th midnight
Meeting: August 18, 2022 Information
Greetings JCC Photographers!
At the August 18 meeting, you will have the opportunity to have critiqued by club members, up to 3 images ahead of the last two contests of the year. None of these images you submit have to be included in any of the upcoming contests. We did this in January, and it seemed to be well received.
You may upload three photos into this album before midnight on Sunday, August 14:

We will present them in the order requested by the submitter. All the first images will be displayed and discussed, then the second, and – if we have time- the third.
The images should be given a title, but you can submit them anonymously.
The images should be labeled:
For the first image – P1- your name (or anon) – image Title
For the second image – P2- your name (or anon) – image Title
For the third image – P3- your name (or anon) – image Title
Images should be not greater than 2400px on the longest side.
HERE IS SOME FURTHER INFO FOR UPLOADING IMAGES FOR THE AUGUST 18TH MEETING CRITIQUE from Ted Floore
To upload photos to the Google Photos Album, using a PC. (I am not an Apple person, so the instructions for that platform will be different)
- Have your 3 photos ready for upload with the proper numbering (P1, P2 and P3)
- Click on the link ( https://photos.app.goo.gl/kF3hr97AhMf2JyBYA )
- A Google Photos Album (JCC Critique Night 18Aug22) should come up on your screen
- In the upper right, there is a series of icons. The one second from the left with a ‘+’ is “add Photos”. Click on that Icon.
- This screen has two options. If you use Google Photos to make albums for sharing your photos with friends and family, your images will appear here. If the photos you wish to upload are in another directory, click on the ‘Select from computer’ in the upper right corner. Clicking here will bring up your file explorer. Navigate to the directory where you saved the 3 photos.
- Select the photos and click ‘Open’ at the bottom of the screen.
- That should load the pictures into the JCC album.
- If you have any issues, please let me know.
