IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FORENTERING THE ANNUAL END OF THEYEAR COMPETITION IN DECEMBER.
READ CAREFULLY.
An end of the year competition will be held in December in lieu of a regular monthly competition. Our judge this year will be Roy Sewall.
For the awards listed below, there will be one class, including both class A and B photographers. A member may enter one image in each category. All entries must have been entered in a monthly competition in the same format during the current activity year. A member submitting an image in the end of the year contest must have entered at least three monthly competitions during the prior year. Digital projections should be entered in the same format they were submitted for the monthly competitions. Images MAY BE RESIZED (vertical side 1080 pixels, see email from Gerry) for the new projector, but should not be altered in any other way.
1. Best Print from any Assigned and Open entry, either color or monochrome, entered during the calendar year as a matted print.
2. Best Digital Projection, from any Assigned or Open digital entry entered during the year as a digitally projected image.
3. Best Creative Print, entered as a matted print in the Creative category.
4. Best Creative Digital Projection image, entered as a digitally projected image.
The following awards will also be announced during the evening.
1. Rothman Photographer of the Year: In memory of Howard Rothman, one of the founding members of the CCC, this award is presented to the Class A photographer who has accumulated the highest number of points during the year.
2. Class B Photographer of the Year: This award is presented to the Class B photographer who has accumulated the highest number of points during the year.
3. Shyan Award: This award, in memory of Ted and Rita Shyan, founding members of the CCC, is open only to Class B photographers. The photographer enters three prints that must have been taken in the current year. Color or monochrome prints may be submitted. These prints should be the three that the photographer considers his or her best work; they do not necessarily have to be part of a theme or a type, but they may if the photographer wishes to present them in that manner. The judge will consider the overall skills of the photographer based on these three images.
Photographs submitted may include those previously exhibited at camera club competitions, but this is not required. However, if photos are entered for both the Shyan Award and the Outstanding Image of the Year Award, separate copies must be entered in each category.
After the November meeting, Anne Scott will send out a list of the number of entries and all earned points, for all members.
Please check your name carefully for mistakes or questions, as two of the end of year awards depend on the number of points earned. If you are planning to enter the competition in December, and did not keep records on your winners and entries during the year, check the information from Anne, and go back through the issues of the FOCUS to find the photos. They must be entered in the same format as they were during the year.
All certificates, prizes, etc. including the winner of the Digital Challenge, will be presented at the January meeting.
