Competitions Overview
Contact: [email protected]
|
Competitions are held on the 4th Thursday of the month throughout the club year.
Note: The club meetings are being held in hybrid format for 2024-25 season which means both digital and print entries are accepted for competition nights. However, only members attending the meeting in person can vote for the print entries. The digital Competitive Categories will be judged by certified external judges. The Exhibition Categories are for viewing only. "When you enter a photograph into a competition you are contributing to the well-being of the Club: you provide the other members with pleasure, with a new idea, and with a forum for discussion, thus contributing to their growth as photographers. Winning is a bonus." (Sheila Holzer, IACC Honorary Member)
