<p>1) Initially when I switched to film, I was lazier. Now I press the shutter release much less frequently to minimize the number of images I must sort through on my computer. Having the instant check on the camera's LCD screen is a great advantage.<br>

2) No. Digital has allowed me to become more involved in photography and therefore more conscious of what makes a good photograph.<br>

3) I have a very large film inventory, but I was not shooting then with the focused approach I have now. Admittedly many of my film shots were family & travel snaps, but this statement still applies.</p>

<p>Our CSIs use Canon 40d bodies with a couple of lenses, one being a macro with 1:1 capapbility. An external flash is a necessary accessory. Also factor in the cost of extra memory cards, a spare battery, and a case. </p>

<p>I try to critique in a manner that I would want to receive on my own photos. If there are positive aspects to an image I try to include those in my comments. I typically choose photos for critiquing that I believe I can offer valid suggestions for improvement. For those images that are lacking a reasonalbly interesting subject, I might simply state, "What are you trying to convey with this photo?", similar to Mike's comment above. I have also found that by semi-regularly critiquing others' photos, I have developed a sense of self critique while shooting my own.</p>

<p>Mart is absolutely right. Check the terms and conditions carefully. Getting accepted into a juried show or an online competition is also something that looks good on your resume'. Win or not, it's at least some recognition that your work is of interest.</p>

<p>Ben, anyone pressing a shutter release on a camera is a photographer. Those just starting out with an entry level dsr can aspire someday to become a condescending pro such as yourself.</p>

<p>All of his books have received very good reviews on Amazon. I am hoping to receive one or two as Christmas presents. I took a workshop from him this year and he definitely knows his stuff.</p>

<p>Thanks, Josh, and no worries. I know you are busy.</p>

<p>Is there a moderator for the ImagePro help forum? I posted a <a href="../imagepro-help-forum/00XoD5">question</a> on the 6th regarding my ImagePro pages and have not yet received a response. I know staff have been very busy with recent changes and this is not a critical need, but it appears that no one is monitoring this forum for ImagePro help (?).</p>

Our club is about 40 people with only about 15 entering photos, on average, in each of our 5 competitioins per year. We are limited to 8 submissions per competition, 2 max per category.</p>

<p>We do only digital with projection. Judging is supposed to be a learning experience and, although some of our judges are relatively impartial and constructive, some are lacking. I also wish for more time to discuss the photos with other members.</p>

<p>I recommend checking out Harold Davis' star trail work. He's a <a href="../photos/Harold_Davis">member</a> here and he has a <a href="http://www.digitalnight.us/index2.php">website</a> devoted to this subject and he, with another photographer, teaches a <a href="http://www.starcircleacademy.com/">workshop</a> on this subject.</p>
