Club Competition/Critique

These photographs were selected as a first, second, third, or honorable mention(s) from our monthly competitions and critiques. At our first meeting of each month, we have a well-respected photographer present on a particular photographic topic, for example, macro photography. 

We selected this presentation topic for the club competition/critique at the second meeting of the month and invited the photographer to judge. Sometimes, this doesn’t work out this way, but this is our goal. 

The photographer will also judge photos that members submit in the open category. Sometimes, the photographer will not rate photographs in the open category and give constructive commentary, which is why we call it Competitions/Critiques.

Selecting any of the images will open the lightbox, which you can then navigate through all the images in the gallery.

January 2024

The club has an annual competition where we select themes for members to photograph during the holiday season. It is the second year we have held this competition, which has become one of our member’s favorite competitions. The process is that each member votes for their selections using an online form. We tally the votes and select 1st through 5th place winners. Our themes were Around Town, Leading Lines, and Red this year. The galleries for each theme are below. Congratulations to our winners, and thank you to all the members who participated!
