RAW substantially change the images. Correct??
There is photography and there is photo art. Where does RAW fit in?

Under photography. Many shoot only raw so raw is required to make the photo. And this is within the competion rules (Correct me if I am wrong Sam).

But if You were to take the same raw and create multiple files with different exposure and then create a HDR photo from them then that would not be allowed (correct me if I am wrong Sam).

Fantastic!! I just learned how I can try HDR. Not in compition of course. Just the experience. I looked at the program before. To really apply the software was beyond my experience level. :lol:
I have learned of a local photoclub. I hope to gain some insite into aspects of photography. I have been lacking.

Jsolie - got it and now the first two photos are online :)

As Tommy said, raw is perfectly acceptable for these competitions. In principle I don't have a problem with HDR photos, but I would need to know if you wanted to submit one.

I've just realised that there is almost an identical conversation going in on in the 'editing' thread. Can you post any further comments on this in there please.

I think the lack on entrants for this once shows everyone suffered the same lack of inspiration as I did. :) I guess we'll only get 1 vote each.
