2007 Holography Contest is Open!
OK, I did not get to it last night but here is the announcement!
The theme is, drum roll, "Friends". I thought we would start with an easy one.
Rules,
1. All entrants need to send me a hologram by 11/15/07.
2. There are two categories. One is 4"x5" and under. The other is larger than 4"x5".
3. Every effort will be made to protect the holograms but the responsibility of insurance on the holograms lies with the entrant! (These holograms will be shipped to England for part of the judging so pack them well.)
4. All holograms will be returned to the entrant unless otherwise specified by the entrant.
5. There will be three Judges.
6. The Judging will be on a 100 point scale as follows:
Technical:
Processing: 10 points
Brightness: 10 points
Mounting: 10 points
Difficulty: 10 points
Artistic:
Composition: 20 points
True to Theme: 20 points
Overall:
Overall impression 20 points
7. The decisions of the Judges are final.
8. Prizes to be announced.
9. Entrants need not be a member of the Holography Forum.
10. All entries must be mailed to me, for my address email colin at holography forum dot org. All entries must include:
Hologram Title
Entrants Complete Name
Entrants Complete Address
Entrants Phone Number
Any information or processing detail that can be shared.
11. All entrants agree to allow the use of a photo of the hologram for the on-line contest gallery.
12. The winners agree to allow the Holography Forum to use an image of the Hologram as Advertising.
13. The 1st place winners agree to donate a hologram to the winner of next years contest.
I think that is everything but I may need to amend the rules.
Good Luck!

8) I should probably wait until next year when I have better equipment but what the jitterbug. My first year might as well be artistic and fun. Next year I will be a force to be dealt with. ![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
Besides, after all the times I've heard the phrase, "Let's just be friends" I am probably an expert in the theme.

Just to make absolutely sure, is Nov 15 a postmarked-by date or a received by you date?

I expect most people will be using frames. However the ambitious might want to review Augie Muller's work! ![Twisted Evil :twisted:](./images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif)

Thanks. I am going to make my object out of clay. It's anthropomorphic on its take on "friends". Nothing complicated of course. I hope after the film is developed it will look out of this world.

8) So far everything is going well. I found distilled water for the JD-2 chemistry, but the grocery store only had it in a 2.5 gallon container. Hauling it five blocks to the bus stop gave me a new found respect for molar mass.
Starting tomorrow night I'll make five attempts each night. Pessimistically, I'll have something to submit by the beginning of next week.
I am still on the quest for a good frame. Maybe I'll recycle the reject attempts and fashion the film into a frame...
