I've a friend who is interested in doing this but not sure if he's on Boards at all. If he does fill out the form is it possible to get him allocated with us?

No problem whatsoever. Just get him to mention that he wants to be with you and I'll stick him in there.

Tiriel

I haven't sent the Postal order yet as work are threatening to steal my weekend - which may mean I can't take part. But I'll know by early next week - hopefully it won't interfere

Sorry!

Tallon

If I can get this sorted, I'll do it

Can I give you cash Denis?

It's coming round to that time of year again and time to get your thinking caps on. The end of August will see the 26th annual Peoples Photography Exhibition on Stephen's Green and once again we're looking to see who is interested in taking part from Boards.

I'm not looking for names just yet and this is just a gentle reminder. Now is the time to think about what you might show or maybe get out and take some shots. As usual the exhibition will be the last weekend in August and should cost the same as last year - €20 I think.

Are amateurs welcome? I'm interested but I only have five or six "abstract" photos I could think of exhibiting?

Absolutely! I am only an amateur too

It's acutally mainly geared towards amateurs An affordable way of seeing how people like your work. And seeing your pictures printed is quite some difference to just seeing them on screen.

We're all amateurs here (well apart from the odd Pro) but Peoples Photography is just that - Peoples Photography. it belongs to the people and most of the exhibitors are amateurs, some with the aspiration of becoming pro!

Nice one! I'll send the application in on Monday, so! Thank you.

pullandbang

So anyone else want to sign up? Go on, it's great craic! Plenty of time left.
If you think you don't have enough to show, then why not share a space with someone else?

Tiriel

I'm afraid I am out

But.. the boy might take my space. I printed the form and put it in his hand this morning - so from there it's in his hands, literally!

♪ It's the final countdown ♫

August is here and Peoples Photography is not far away now.......

homerun_homer

Agh, I'm trying to figure out the best place to get my photos printed and card mounted (or sort them out from seperate vendors if necessary). Suggestions welcome. I know loads of people recommend 360dpi but he is on holidays so I can't get a quote. Any other suggestions?

picaaf

have heard good things about

A friend mentioned them to me but had this to say

They would always be my first choice for fine art prints but that is for like large scale exhibition standard. But they are CRAZY expensive so I think for this they wouldn't be right.

Yes you can get a quote :-)

Send me a msg and will sort

The allocations have been published and it seems the boardsies have been moved around the corner to the Northside.

homerun_homer

I'm 106 and the friend I asked to be added is 109, would any of the 2 boardsies in between us mind swapping spots or do I mail the PP13 people to make a change?

pullandbang

Just swap away amongst yourselves.

JJdubya is 110 - he will swap with you no problem - I'll let him know

PaleHorse

I got an email saying I'd be put with the Boards group but I'm not anywhere on the list. Should I be worried?

Just reply to the mail and I'll get you changed if you want.

Just home now and looking back through emails - who are you? You didn't put your name down on this thread as wanting to exhibit with boards and the only one I can find who was interested is another boardsie - not you.

Hi,

Where is the break at gate 3 on the green?

As you walk East along the Northside there are three gates so No.3 would be the third one you encounter. The breaks are free space on either side of the gates as required by the OPW.

TTWNF

Hi guys,

i've just found out that i can't make it next weekend so my spot is going free. If someone wants to take it maybe send me a PM & i can give you the details.

Hi,

Which spaces are the board members occupying at the weekend?

pullandbang

http://peoplesphotography.ie/?page_id=353

Boards are towards the end of the Northside if not the very end as I think this list has been tweaked further in the past couple of days.

Adrian.Sadlier

Less than 36 hours to go and I have 25 pictures printed - but I have to mount them yet and they are all custom sizes - I might be using some old stuff yet!

Jonnykitedude

Boo looks like I wont be able to attend this year!

Was looking forward in catching up....oh and displaying my mediocre images.

Enjoy and I'll see you at the boards photobook launch cough cough Tracy

homerun_homer

My mounts have caused me a little trouble. I used double sided stickey tape as instructed but they are all coming loose. I would have thought having them stacked, building up pressure and weight would have made them stronger. Gonna have to come up with something last minute to make sure they don't come apart while on display.

Suggestions welcome.

positivenote

HI all,
just wondering what time this is kicking off at tomorrow? I was part of it myself a few years back and its a good day for all concerned and great to see the wonderful work that is being done by not just those from boards.
I will be going around each of the exhibitors tomorrow hoping to get people to fill out a short questionnaire as part of some PhD research im doing in to peoples attitudes towards photographers, it would be great if anyone there tomorrow could help me by taking the time to complete it as it will only take 5mins.
anyway the best of luck to everyone

Pritt Stick? Paper Glue?

double sided should be fine

sounds liek either rubbish tape or not enough pressure

if it doesnt hold you can always run a very small bead of PVA glue around near the outside edge

homerun_homer

Yeah it was the only double sided sticky tape in Easons (not including the tiny, thin one they had on a spool that would only work with xmas presents) and it must be crap. It's odd as it's still sticky when the mount comes off the board. I'll stick some added glue around as you say to make it stick better.

What is the story with parking? It doesn't look like it is possible to actually park along the road by your space and parking for the whole day else where will be damn expensive too..!!

pullandbang

Well that's day one over and what a great one it was. Here's to day two!

Parking on a Sunday won't be a problem at the time you arrive.
