Subject: [Leica] The next yearbook

When the 2022 LUG yearbook was published in March, I announced the 
schedule for the 2023 edition. It was so far in the future that everyone 
forgot.

It is no longer very far in the future. Two photographers have already 
submitted their pictures. Time to un-forget.


Contributions to the 2023 yearbook are due 9 February 2024.
Here are the instructions:

     http://leica-users.org/yearbook/submitting.html

Here is a summary of what that page says:


You can submit two images, and/or a doublewide panorama.

Tell us who you are and where you live. You wouldn't believe how much 
time we have spent in past years trying to figure out where 
photographers live, when they don't tell us. We don't like code names or 
#handles. I'm not going to include an image unless I know the name and 
location of the photographer.

Attach 2 images that have enough resolution. 3000x3000 is enough.

You are also welcome to include a "full bleed" panoramic image, 5775 
pixels wide and 1650 pixels high. This means that if you submit 2 
regular images and 1 panorama you will have 3 photos in the yearbook, 
occupying 4 pages.

Provide captions for each. We like it when you give technical details.
We encourage you to provide 100 words or so of background, local color, 
or explanation. In past years, not enough people have done this. We 
really do want to know how you made the picture, where it was taken, and 
so on. Please don't be shy.
