Photo Contest

August 10 2024

Topic: Printed Image

 

The monthly Notch Above Photo Contest is open for posting, commenting and voting by club members. All will be eligible for monthly “Best of Category”, but only active dues paying members will be eligible for the Annual Award. Those interested in becoming active club members may contact the co-organizers: drtimnh@outlook.com or sfmatz@gmail.com.
The club dues are in lieu of any photo submission fee for the Annual Award.
Each contest runs from one meeting (2nd Saturday of every month) to the next.
Contest entrants are limited to two photos per month, but only one can be a previously taken photo. A previously taken photo must still fit the category for the current month. A specific photo can be submitted only once per year.
Entrants are encouraged to post their photo(s) in the first 2-3 weeks of each month cycle for maximum visibility and to give others a chance to view and comment. Entrants should include info about their photo(s).
Posting, commenting and voting are open to both active club members and visitors.
Entrants prepare their own jpegs for submission. In brief, images should be jpeg, long side not more than 1920 pix, preferably “sharpened for web” and jpeg quality ~ 70-80. Image file size should be not more than 5 Mb.
One person/one vote per month, and you cannot vote for your own photo(s).
Contest categories will be determined going forward, and will be a mix of “open” and “specific”. Consult the Photo Contest page of our website for the current category.
Monthly awards are in the form of recognition as best in category, e.g. “Best in Flowers”, and will be posted on our website.
There is one winner each month (unless there are ties). In December, the Annual Award winner(s) will be chosen from the monthly winners.
Active club members need to win in only 1 month to be eligible for the Annual Award.
We will explore the possibility of displaying prints of contest winners (members are responsible for printing their own winning photos).
