It was a competition, with an outside judge, Jean Holmwood. The categories were “creative” as well as open sections for the Intermediate and Advanced groups. The creative slides included some that had been obviously digitally manipulated, and then created as a slide. At least one of these was manipulated, and displayed to full screen and then photographed with slide film (he hadn’t noticed that one of the photoshop icons was on the image – that was a bit of a giveaway really :-). It got me to thinking of other ways you could do this. Then I came home and started reading a magazine I’d bought the other day “Digital Photographer” for “enthusiasts and Pros”. On the letters page is a letter asking just that, how to get a digital file onto slide. The answer appears to be that there is a firm based in Nottingham, Viva Imaging that will do that, and if you look for photo labs in your area, check them for “digital film recorder” services. So, at least I know that when I feel confident enough to submit images to these slide competitions, at least I will be able to do so.
