Nine Van Wert Area Photography Club members were on hand Sunday, Aug. 30,\u00a0from 1 p.m. to after 5 p.m. assisting entrants, registering their photos, and hanging the pictures for the County Fair’s Photography Exhibit.\u00a0 A study of the\u00a0registration sheets revealed that 54\u00a0photographers turned in 311 pictures this year compared to 58 people who submitted 220 photos last year.<\/p>\n

The good news is that, possibly for the first time, no one entered a picture in a frame having an opening larger than 8×10 inches. On the other hand, not having the proper wire attached for hanging and\u00a0the entry tag attached to the wire continued to be problems for several of the entrants.<\/p>\n

The registration process was a little more demanding this\u00a0time due to photographers being able to submit two pictures in each of the 5 classes in both color and black\/white\u00a0for a total of 20 pictures.\u00a0 The classes for this year are: At the Fair, Transportation, People, On the Farm and the 5th class could be either a City Scape, Land- or Seascape. Having the entries listed at the bottom of one page and continued at the top of the next page, which couldn’t be helped, at times also slowed the process.<\/p>\n

Anyone wishing to purchase a picture should leave their contact information with the number on the front of the\u00a0frame\u00a0at the photography desk. A host will contact the photographer about the potential sale and relay the buyer’s contact information. It will be up to the photographer to contact the buyer.<\/p>\n

There are many really impressive images this year, so be sure not to miss the display.<\/p>\n

The club’s next regularly scheduled meeting is on the second Thursday.\u00a0 This month that would be Sept. 10, 7 p.m. at 114 S. Race St.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
