(That way we can complain even louder next year). According to the\u00a0 \u00a0e-mail you should send your suggestions along with an explanation of how the photographers are to interpret the topic in case of ambiguity in the title. (Ok<br \/>\nnow I feel some sympathy for the competitions committee). You should send your suggestions to Howard Sandler &#8211; hsandlerphoto@hotmail.com by April 4th.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/?attachment_id=10681\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10681\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10681\" title=\"untitled-3789\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-3789-300x209.jpg?resize=300%2C209\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-3789.jpg?resize=300%2C209&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-3789.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/?attachment_id=10682\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10682\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10682\" title=\"untitled-2708\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-2708-198x300.jpg?resize=198%2C300\" alt=\"\" width=\"198\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-2708.jpg?resize=198%2C300&amp;ssl=1 198w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.raphotoclub.ca\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/untitled-2708.jpg?w=678&amp;ssl=1 678w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nNow I have two suggestions: First a Macro or close-up competition &#8211; the interpretation is &#8211; little stuff but not necessarily bugs or flowers.
