Welcome to the N4C Interactive Forums,
"Where Names Become Faces and Faces Become Friends".
In bulletin board format, this is an online home where members can discuss news and events between meetings, and everyone can easily share their photos and favorite techniques, learn new skills and much more, while we use this opportunity to get to know each other better around our Upper Midwest region.
For tips on using this board, please see the introductory thread listed under "Our N4C Community".

Pictorial ColorPictorial photos are concerned with the artistic quality of the presentation of the subject rather than with the subject itself. Interest or impact is important. Did the photographer simply record the subject, or through the photographic process enhance the viewer's interest in the subject? Pictorialism may be accomplished by meticulous photographic technique, proper presentation, careful composition, or most likely all of these factors. |
