Believe me, there were lots of people coming and going throughout the time the Show was open to the public and I saw quite a lot of them taking pictures - be it with cameras or phones.
We had notices telling everyone who was of a mind to read them about the Photo Competition.
I personally think the reluctance to submit their pictures has been disappointing to say the least.
Hopefully you'll all start submitting your snapshots in time for the deadline - it's a worthwhile prize (not to be sniffed at) and there aren't very many Ts&Cs.
So let's see a bit of a 'last minute rush'.

John

Yep. It was pretty jammers alright. I know that we had so many people taking pics at our stand that not even I could get in to take a picture (apart from a picture of people taking pictures !!)

Maybe people are seeking a bit of perfection, and taking photos of fish in the show tanks doesn't always give that 'perfect' picture.

As the lads said it was very busy

As for taking photos i seen a good few taking some and then we put out posters and the Irish Fish Keppers Pgone Comp and the prize and what has to be done

And have to say after that there was a lot with the phones and cameras out so i know that photos are there just need to get them sent in

@Ian any off our photo comps is not about the 'perfect' picture as you know mate

its a bit off fun and even better that at the end off the off it there is a prize

As i have seen many photos comp winning with with non 'perfect' pictures and have to say even though they where maybe only taking with a photo it is all about what is in the photo

Thanks

Sean

Hope quality of pix be better this time..more at 3.0 Mgpix phone cameras+not soooooooo blur like before.

@michaelo at least we will all get to see one decent photo which obviously will be yours .unfortunatly you will be somewhat disappointed with at least one photo which will be mine as even with a half decent camera I couldn't take a photo to save my life,but to be perfectly honest I couldn't give a monkeys it's only about having a bit of a laugh for me.
So I'm looking forward to seeing at least one perfectly focused contrasting photo of the show,there's a €50 voucher up for grabs

Michael I have look at your photo it is very nice but it is not from the ITFS show that was on was it?

Sean

seconded Johnh, this was not contributing anything of worth

michaelo wats ur problem? why do you come here if all you want to do is complain and frustrate people? grow up and cop on. there's so much more i'd love to say but i'm not goin to risk getting banned. i actually like bein here.

..i sayed it as a joke.. ..but looks like somebody was hungover last night and woke up on wrong side.Ehh u old timers....i say nothing more.

first off i'm not hung over, i don't drink and secondly i'm not an old timer i'm 24 so keep your smart comments to yourself. nobody here wants to hear it.

John..ehh..ok...srry to all ho feel or take it wrong.My taste of humor is bit different...that all.

what the story with pictures?

I guess that 'old timer' jibe was pointed towards me - and would be right.

Still, as they say, you're only as old as you feel, and sometimes I feel quite old!John

No John, I think Michael is confusing Alzheimers ( a Word closer to his Parlance) with "old Timers"

Kev.

I just have to say, the quality is NOT the criteria on which the selection of the Photograph is made, it is based on content or activity , if it was also based on the quality or value of the equipment used many members would be excluded so, rest assured it will never be attributed to the quality of the equipment, more on how you use it.

Criticism, when it is constructive is more than accepted , it's veiled sarcasm and dissent that is excepted.

Kev.

....cant wait to see all of them.

My photo skills are awful, i have a super camera, and it says point and click, i do and it doesnt. Took me about 8 attempts to get a 1min video clip up loaded onto the site, my for sale stuff is taking by my nephew, my ph is a nokia house brick so camera is muck. My fish dont help none of them will stand still.
