President’s Message “New Beginnings” What an appropriate theme for our 157th

Fair.

We are in a new location on a new date, we have a revised book and we have a wonderful mixture of seasoned and new directors, members and helpers.

There are many things for the community to enjoy at our fair.

Traditional exhibits blend with educational and interactive displays. Varieties of livestock will be on the grounds for the animal lovers in the crowd.

The antique and old tractor enthusiasts will have a chance to display their pride and joy. Implements are a new attraction this year.

The smell of pancakes and sausages from our breakfast buffet will give way to the sizzle of hamburgers and sausages grilling for lunch. A delicious piece of home made pie with tea or coffee will finish off the afternoon.

Entertainment for young and old can be found inside and out. There are too many wonderful things to mention -­‐ so come and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.

Sharrie Brick -­‐ President

Extra copies of the form are available on the day of the Fair.

b)

FARMING EQUIPMENT KID(S) WITH FARM ANIMALS (no pets) FLOWERS (close up) LANDSCAPE WILDLIFE (close up) BLACK AND WHITE PHOTO MACRO – there’s fun to be had in the ‘tiny’ details COLOUR ACCENTS – black and white with a pop! of colour Page 85

Chatsworth 157th Annual Fair 9. NIGHT PHOTO – slow down that shutter speed 10. HORSES 11. LIVESTOCK

NOTE: NO VIEWING OF EXHIBITS ON FRIDAY

Some Helpful Pointers Subject: Keep in mind the section you are entering your photo in; put your photo where it fits best. A photo of a squirrel probably will not win against a photo of a bear in the “Wildlife” section, it may be better suited in the “Black & White Photo” section.

Composition: A well composed photo should be pleasing to the viewer’s eye; it should draw the viewer to a focal point of the photo and not be overly cluttered. Remember your ‘rule of thirds.’

Print Quality: While it is possible to print decent quality photos on a home printer, sometimes home prints just aren’t up to par. Take pride in your work and show us the best quality print you can muster.

Creativity: That first impression, ‘WOW!’ factor, is important. Show us something no one has ever seen before. A new perspective on an old object, or a detail that someone else may have missed.
