"Open to the Public-NECCC Winter Interclub Digital Competition & Judging-Pictorial, Nature & Monochrome "
by Pam Lintner, HonNEC & Susan Mosser, HonFPSA, HonNEC
Saturday, February 8, 11:00 AMThe judging starts at 11am to completion which is about 1:30pm - lunch is not served. The judging is open to the public and we hope you will join us and see what the other clubs are doing for photography.
Our judges will be, Rick Cloran, HonFPSA, HonNEC, GMPSA-Greater Lynn Photo Assoc. and Silvana Della Camera, MNEC- Stony Brook CC. Due to the change in the date we also had to change one of the judges- Karl Zuzarte, MNEC -Photographic Society of RI will now judge at the Spring comp in April. Our new judge is Shiv Verma, FPSA, HonNEC.
This will be scoring only from 6-15 points per image, no critique. There are 37 NECCC member clubs competing with 26 clubs in Class A Color and 11 in Class B Color. In Nature there are 19 clubs in Class A and 17 clubs in Class B. Monochrome has now been split into 2 classes depending on the clubs scores from last year and we have 15 clubs in Class A and 22 clubs in Class B. Each club can enter 4 images per section by different makers. This year we have adjusted some of the rules and we are not allowing Nature into the color section unless the image has been modified beyond what the PSA nature definition allows. We are also not allowing mono in the color section. Ties will be broken and the 1st-2nd-3rd and Honor Award winners will be selected by the judges at the time of the judging. The competition will be recorded, and the link to view it will be sent to all NECCC member clubs after the judging.
