RIALACHA AN CHOMÓRTAIS GHRIANGHRAFADÓIREACHTA

Tá an comórtas seo dírithe ar ghrianghraif dhaite nó mhonachrómacha a léiríonn gné ar bith den saol atá ag cainteoirí Gaeilge nó Gàidhlig , nó ag Ghaidhealtachd na hAlban nó na hÉireann.

Tá an comórtas oscailte do ghrianghrafadóirí amaitéireacha. Ní gá duit bheith i dó chónaí sa Ghaidhealtachd/Ghaeltacht ná bheith i do chainteoir Gàidhlig/Gaeilge le dul isteach air. Ní mór, áfach, foscríbhinn as Gàidhlig nó Gaeilge a chur le gach grianghraf.

Ní mór do gach iontráil bheith i bhfoirm dhigiteach, cé gur féidir an pictiúr féin a thógáil le ceamara digiteach nó le gabháil scannáin. Lena chinntiú go mbíonn an taifeach oiriúnach lena chur ar taispeáint ba chóir go mbeadh gach grianghraf de mhiontaifeach 2500 x 1900 an picteilín glactha ó cheamara 5MP nó níos airde.

Caithfear foscríbhinn/teideal a chur faoi gach grianghraf as Gàidhlig/Gaeilge, ach ní dhéanfar breithiúnas ar an iontráil de réir an Ghaeilge nó an Ghàidhlig atá ansin.

Caithfidh foirm chláraithe ar líne a líonadh ar shuíomh gréasáin Colmcille ar son gach íomhá. (Níl teorainn ar bith ar líon na n-íomhánna a chuireann gach iontrálaí isteach ach caithfear foirm a líonadh le haghaidh gach íomhá a chuirtear isteach.)

Dícháileofar iontrálaí ar bith nár lion foirm iontrála.

Luaigh sa chur síos, an áit ar tógadh an pictiúr

Tá sé mar dhualgas ar an iontrálaí déanamh cinnte de go bhfaightear an cead cuí ó na daoine atá sna grianghraif. Ní mór gur obair an úinéara amháin é gach grianghraf.

Ní mór grianghraif a chur isteach roimh an 6in Dé Luain an 31 Lúnasa Meán Fómhair 2009.

Fiosrúcháin amháin – mairi@colmcille.net

Ní féidir le Colmcille glacadh le freagracht ar bith a bhaineann le hiontrálacha a chailltear nó moill ar iontrálacha.

Tá gach iontráil faoi réir téarmaí seirbhísí Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/terms.gne)

Ba cheart do dhuine fásta íomhán a chur isteach trí Duine ar bith

I cás duine faoi bhun 13 bliana, ba cheart duine fásta na híomhánna a chur chuig Flickr ar a son ar ríomhphost chuig saolnangael@googlemail.com

Moltóirí a cheapann Colmcille a roghnóidh na hiontrálacha a bhaineann. Is leis an mholtóir amháin an cinneadh deireanach. Cuirfear in iúl do na buaiteoirí tríd an phost, trí rphost nó leis an ghuthán agus bronnfar na duaiseanna ar ócáid bronnta na nduaiseanna, turas a n-íocfar na costais uile leis. (Éirinn, Albain, agus áit ar bith sa Ríocht Aontaithe amháin)

Déanfar sonraí na mbuaiteoirí a fhoilsiú go forleathan.

Is féidir go gcuirfear cuid den mharsantacht seo i gcló arís. Ní íocfar táillí ar bith air seo nó ar athchló ar bith eile ach coinneoidh gach grianghrafadóir cóipcheart iomlán ar a gcuid íomhánna agus tabharfar creidiúnas cuí dóibh faoina gcuid oibre. (Is féidir go ndéanfar é seo as Gàidhlig, Gaeilge nó Béarla). Is féidir go mbeidh sé seo ar taispeáint ar shuíomh
Gréasáin Colmcille i dtaispeántas poiblí nó ar dhóigheanna eile). Tá an ceart ag Colmille na híomhánna seo a úsáid chun an eagraíocht a chur chun cinn.

RIAGHAILTEAN NA CO-FHARPAIS DEALBH-CAMARA

Faodar dealbhan dathte no dubh is geal an cur a-staigh dhan cho-fharpais a tha a’ sealltainn pàirt sam bith de shaoghal luchd labhairt na Gàidhlig no na Gaeilge no de saoghal nan Gàidhealtachdan, ann an Alba no Èirinn.

Tha a’ cho-fharpais fosgailte do neach sam bith a tha a’ togail dhealbhan, ach a-mhàin daoine a tha gan togail gu proifeiseanta. Chan fheum sibh a bhith a’ fuireach air a’ Ghàidhealtachd ann an Alba no Èirinn; chan feum sibh a bhith fileanta ann an Gàidhlig no Gaeilge airson cur a-staigh airson na co-fharpais.

Feumaidh gach dealbh a chuirear a-staigh a bhith ann an cruth didseatach ach faodaidh iad a bhith air an thogail le camara didseatach no le camara le fiolm. Gus dèanamh cinnteach gu bheil na dealbhan soilleir gu leòr airson sealltainn ann an taisbeanadh, feumaidh meudachd nan dealbh a bhith co-dhiù aig ìre 2500 x 1900 picseal agus feumaidh iad a bhith air an togail le camera 5MP no nas àirde.

Tha e deatamach fo-thiotal goirid ann an Gàidhlig no Gaeilge a bhith ann airson gach dealbh. Chan ann a-rèir a Ghàidhlig/Gaeilge a bhios measadh nam breitheamh.

Feumaidh gach farpaiseach am foirm clàraidh air-loidhne air làrach-lìn Cholmcille a lìonadh a-steach. (Faodaidh daoine an uiread de dhealbhan ’s a thogras iad a chur a-staigh, ach feumaidh iad foirm a lìonadh airson gach dealbh.)

Cha tèid gabhail ri dealbh sam bith mur eil foirm clàraidh na chois.

Feumar fiosrachadh mu càite an deach an dealbh a thogail a bhith an cois gach foirm clàraidh.

Tha e an urra ris an fharpaisich dèanamh cinnteach gun d’fhuaras cead a h-uile duine san dealbh an dealbh a chleachdadh san cho-fharpais.

Feumaidh na dealbhan a bhith air an togail leis an neach a chuireas a-staigh iad.

Feumar dealbhan a chur a-staigh ro 6f air Diluain 31mh an Lùnasdal 2009.
Cuiribh fios a-mhàin gu – mairi@colmcille.net

Cha ghabh Colmcille a’ choire airson call, no dealbhan a tha fadalach a’ ruighinn.

Tha gach tagradh fo smachd na riaghailtean aig Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/terms.gne)

A thaobh thagraichean fo aois 13 feumar inbheach na dealbhan aca a chur a-steach as an leth tro Flickr no ann am post-dealan gu saolnangael@googlemail.com

Thèid na dealbhan a bhuannaicheas a thaghadh le britheamhan a thaghas Colmcille.

’S ann aig na britheamhan a tha am facal mu dheireadh. Gheibh an fheadhainn a bhuannaicheas fios tron phost, air a’ fòn no tron phost-d agus thèid na duaisean a thoirt seachad aig tachartas sònraichte agus gheibh an fheadhainn a bhuannaicheas cosgaisean airson a bhith an làthair (an Rìoghachd Aonaichte agus Poblachd na hEirinn a-mhain).

Thèid follaiseachd mhòr a dhèanamh air an fheadhainn a bhuannaicheas.

Cleachdaidh Colmcille cuid de na dealbhan airson sanasachd a dhèanamh air an tachartas. Dh’fhaodadh gum foillsich Colmcille mìosachan agus stuth eile a tha ceangailte ris a’ cho-fharpais. Dh’fhaodadh gun tèid cuid den stuth-reic seo a chlò-bhualadh a-rithist. Chan fhaigh na farpaisich pàigheadh airson ath-fhoillseachadh no ath chlò-bhualadh den stuth seo, ach gleidhidh luchd-dealbh camara na còraichean slàn aca airson nan dealbhan agus bheirear aithne gur e an obair acasan a th’ ann. (Dh’fhaodadh gun tèid seo a dhèanamh ann an Gàidhlig, Gaeilge no Beurla.) An lùib seo dh’fhaodadh dealbhan nochdadh air làrach-lìn Cholmcille, ann an taisbeanadh poblach no ann an àite eile.

Tha Colmcille a’ gleidheadh na còrach na dealbhan a chleachdadh gus follaiseachd a dhèanamh air a’ bhuidhinn.

Chan urrainn do luchd-obrach Cholmcille, Foras na Gaeilge, Bòrd na Gàidhlig no do bhuill a’ Bhùird, no duine sam bith a tha càirdeach dhaibh cur a-staigh airson na co-fharpais.

’S math dh’fhaodte gun tèid iarraidh air an fheadhainn a bhuannaicheas duais geàrr-chunntas goirid a dhèanamh, airson taisbeanadh, a nì mìneachadh air an dealbh aca agus a dh’innseas cuin agus càite an deach a togail.

Tha còig duaisean ann:

INBHICH

A’ chiad duais £2000

An dàrna duais £750

An treas duais £500

CLANN (fo 16 air 31/08/09)
