Entry Details for Images of the Year Competition 2010

5/03/10

COMPETITION FOR IMAGES OF THE YEAR – Tue March 30th 2009/10
(Entries are due on Tuesday 16th March)

1. Each member may enter a maximum of TWO Colour Prints and THREE Digitally projected Images (DPI). A member may additionally enter two Monochrome Prints. A third Monochrome print will also be accepted where the member has entered only mono prints during the season.

An image is considered to be monochrome if it, (in addition to a straight black and white image), is a black and white image which has been modified by the addition of a single tone to the entire image. This is the current published WCPF definition.

2. In addition to producing results for the night, this competition will be used to determine the Monochrome Print, Colour Print, and DPI of the year. The judge is David Guest, a local professional photographer, and he will give the normal critique on all images presented.

3. Any image, new or previously entered in the season, may be submitted. In order to determine Gold, Silver, Bronze, HC, and Commended levels of Colour Print and DPI Images of the year, the points scored on this night will be combined with any points awarded by the different judge on the night when they were previously entered in the current season. Images may be reprocessed / improved – e.g. based on the comments of the previous judge. The Mono Print of the year will be awarded entirely on the points received for this night.

4. Points gained in the five monthly competitions are reproduced below.

Please Note: This is the one competition of the season where members can re-enter the same picture, including any changes you might choose. Irrespective of whether it scores high it gives feedback on both your changes and what a second opinion might be. The seasoned participants mostly enter club competitions to help give them extra motivation to take and improve their photographs. Most of us obviously don’t expect to win the season overall, even though we naturally enjoy the occasional appreciation of our work on any single night. You are all encouraged, therefore, to enter this competition, with entirely new images, or those with earlier high or low scores.

Awards will be presented at the AGM as follows.

1. The NAPC Photographer of the Year award is presented to the member who has gained the highest total of points from the monthly competitions of the season, across both sections.

2. Two NAPC Season awards are made to recognise the season winners for the aggregate points in each of the two monthly sections (Print and DPI).

3. NAPC Image of the Year awards are made to the winner(s) of each of the three sections. (Colour Print, Mono Print, and DPI).
