The Dapa Group members "Hall of Fame" is a gallery created to showcase the work of our members, whose images have received recognition by way of the group's "Merit Award" scheme. Merit awards are given out by Dapa Group members to images they consider to be inspirational. Any member can give out the award, but please ensure that the image being awarded meets with the following award criteria.
 
Composition: The use of line, texture and form, to create interest. Composition should also include balance in relationship to form.

Content: The element of content deals with the overall choice of subject matter; it should be appropriate, timely, and well thought out.

Post Processing: The element of processing refers to the focus and clarity of the image; colours or tones should be rendered accurate, exposed correctly and be sharp. Any blurring of the image should be intentional, not untimely.
 
Cropping/Framing: The element of cropping means that the subject should be emphasised to be the focal point of the composition, with unwanted objects or borders deleted from the final image.
 
Finally: To administer the award, simply copy and paste the following code to the comment box of the recipient’s image. It would also be a good idea to add the following tag: dapagroupmeritaward. By tagging your images in this way makes it easier to keep track on your awards and the images, which have received them.
