SUMMARY:Four Nations
DESCRIPTION:How do you feel about representing your country\, photographically? The 4 Nations competition is your chance to achieve this honour. It is a cool photo event\, quite different to the usual salons and competitions. \n\n\n\nThis annual challenge pits the best photographic endeavours of the four national photographic societies of Australia\, Canada\, South Africa and New Zealand. Each society selects 80 images to represent them. All the resultant 320 images are judged by a panel of three international judges\, who are all independent of the four countries. Images are scored anonymously\, and the 3 judges scores are aggregated. The society with the highest total score gains the “Bragging Rights”. \n\n\n\nWherever PSNZ finishes in the challenge you can feel proud that your selected image was part of our team chasing the honours.

SUMMARY:Instilling Emotion with Photoshop
DESCRIPTION:Helen McLeod is a Fellow of the Photographic Society of New Zealand\, an Associate of the Royal Photographic Society and holds a Gold Portfolio Distinction with the Photographic Society of America. She has been tutoring photography for many years in tertiary institutions and runs six Landscape workshops annually in central Otago. \n\n\n\nIn this workshop you will learn The What\, Why and How of Photoshop Image Enhancement including: \n\n\n\n\nBasic Photoshop means of enhancing the images captured from any genre of photography;\n\n\n\nWhy this is important – a way to instil the emotion you felt at the time of capture\, to pull out the hidden potential of any photograph; and\n\n\n\nHow we can bring to life any image and let our uniqueness shine through our photography.\n\n\n\n\nCheck out this AV which gives numerous before and after examples. \n\n\n\nThe workshop will be held at the Vintage Car Club rooms\, Hickling Park A C Baths Avenue\, Taupō  at 12.00 pm on Friday 23rd May and end on Sunday 25th May around 4.00pm. \n\n\n\nFriday 23rd May (12pm) \n\n\n\nWe begin the workshop by checking that everyone has their laptops set up correctly with Photoshop. Then we will venture out with our cameras to capture some images that you will process during the workshop.  (You are also welcome to bring some unprocessed images with you as well to work on.) \n\n\n\nSaturday 24th May (9am – 4pm) \n\n\n\nHelen will demonstrate her approach to the assessment of her images and how she brings them into line with her vision at the time she pressed the shutter button.  During this time she will provide a brief explanation of Photoshop’s basic features (such as layers\, adjustment layers and masks) and how they are employed to instil the emotion back into our images to bring them to life and really make them our own.  Images will be supplied upon which we will work together encompassing several techniques. \n\n\n\nSunday 25th May (9am – 4pm) \n\n\n\nUsing examples from her own work we will look at some slightly more advanced\, or alterative\, methods of enhancing our images (painting like a Renaissance painter\, darkening versus lightening\, adding lens flares\, working non-destructively\, cropping\, vignettes).  You will then apply all your newly found skills to your own images on your laptops\, revealing the hidden potential you captured.  From here we will briefly touch on more artistic means to bring our personalities to our images (overlays/textures\, borders). \n\n\n\nWhat to Bring \n\n\n\n\nCamera\, tripod\, and your favourite landscape lens\n\n\n\nLaptop with Photoshop downloaded and installed.  Please make sure you have loads of space on your laptop as Photoshop images can get large quickly.  Working on and from an external hard drive is a great way to work and makes your laptop run quicker.\n\n\n\nA USB (Windows compatible) stick upon which images supplied will be loaded to work on as a group.\n\n\n\nImages taken previously that you would like to process.\n\n\n\nA sense of fun and a willingness to learn!\n\n\n\n(Chocolate for your tutor/educator!)\n\n\n\nWater bottle\, snacks\, and lunches for both days.\n\n\n\n\nPlease note: \n\n\n\nMeals and accommodation are not included. The nearest option for lunch is the Village Bakery and Café at 258 Spa Road\, about three minutes’ walk away. We will have a Workshop dinner on Saturday (pay your own).
