good human interest ideas.

The difference between q
winning snapshot and a loser
is often just the lack Of an
interesting theme. In other
words. make each one of
your snapshots tell some kind
Of story. Nothing complicated
i'm fact. the simpler the,
better. When taking a pic
ture Of a child don't click
the shutter while the young
ster is staring at the camera.
Instead. wait until he or she
is happily occupied with
some little activity character
istic of childhood.
The same advice applies to
your snapshots Of pets and
animals. A sleeping cat is
Of little interest to most peo-
pie. but the same cat at play
with a toy mouse or splitting
fury at the neighbours dog is
another picture. indeed. In the
eyes Of the judges who, after
all, are just people who have
developed q special interest
in photography.
In EDITORIALS Of landscapes
and water scenes try to in
jet q bit of human interest
by having q small figure in
the foreground. In action
pictures have real movement
and action. In still-life shots
composition and lighting will
mean . lot to those who will
Judge your photos.
Be sure to put your name
and address on the back of
all photos. Mail to Snapshot

the Old English 'sele" denoted
dwelling, mansion or hall of a
landlord" and that the suffiX by"

of Selby owes its name to the fact
that it was a village by the man
