[zardos123]

hi all, i have spoken to john sarkissian tonight and the subject for the 2011 open catergory will be "Australia under the stars" or some thing very close, the idea is to represent an iconic image of australia and a connection to the stars or astronomy. he will be sending out a group email in the next few days to those on the email list. i will paste a copy here when i can. i will take a copy to iisac as well. so start your shot planning

Definitely an interesting theme.

I'll have to have a think about this, a few bush ideas spring to mind.

Also the part about non composite shots, i think this will mean that those with less processing experience still have a real go at a winning photo. keeps it to a camera,tripod and creative intent. Well done malin awards!!!!
