Let's do this!
I need large, high resolution photos with Pharaoh Hounds in happy, funny, cute, silly, athletic, or casual poses (no show or stacked photos, please). If a professional has taken your photo, you must get permission for the photo to be in a fund-raising calendar.
If you are familiar with photo editing, it would save me a good deal of time if you could send calendar ready photos. Final photo size will be 11 x 9 inches with resolution in the 200 to 300 d.p.i range.
I understand that not everyone has the capability to do this, so I can do some cropping and resizing to make it the correct dimensions. To make this possible, the layout should be slightly longer than tall . . . just like a Pharaoh Hound! . No square or tall, skinny pictures. If you don’t know whether your photo is large enough, look at the file size; it should be a minimum of 1,000 kb (1MB) and preferably more in the 3 MB (or more) range. The bigger your file, the more pixels I have to work with to make the photo work for the calendar
The Pharaoh Hound doesn't have to be huge in the photo. If you have Pharaoh Hounds running in the distance through a beautiful landscape, that’s great! You’ve seen the photo that I’ve attached before, but it gives you an idea of what I mean. Do not identify your dog. No people in the photos. We want generic Pharaoh Hounds so the calendar has the widest appeal!
Some photos that are seasonal would be good. Some snow photos, some bathing beauty photos. Let’s stay away from religious holidays - think spring, summer, winter, fall.
Since I’m so late, let’s just stick to e-mailed photos this year. I just don’t have time to do a bunch of scanning. Best address for large files is nahapharaohs@gmail.com. I’ll accept photos for about a week then choose the best 12. Then, depending on how many photos I get, I’ll turn the rest of the submission into a collage for the calendar cover.
