+ 2021 Inter-Community Competition (Nov 16th) ZOOM Session:
The Stonebridge Photography Club has been invited to participate in the 2021 Inter-Community Photo Competition.
The competition is an annual event conducted by photography clubs in a number of area adult communities. Members of participating clubs submit digital photos that are projected, scored and critiqued by a judge. This year there are six community photography clubs participating: Four Seasons at Metedeconk, Four Seasons at Manalapan, Westlake Golf & Country Club, Regency at Monroe, River Pointe at Manchester and our Stonebridge Photography Club.
WHEN
November 16th (Tuesday), judging starts at 7:00 pm.
WHERE
Competition to be conducted via Zoom
PHOTO SUBMISSIONS
Each member of our club may submit up to two photos for the competition. All photos must have been taken on or after November 1st 2018 (approximately no more than three years old). All photos must be your own original work, including post-processing. Images that have won at a prior Inter-Community competition may not be entered again.
PHOTO FORMAT:
- Photos must be in digital .jpg (JPEG) format.
- sRGB color space is recommended, but not required.
- There are no required size restrictions for your photo files. However, since the biggest possible image is best, I recommend you size your image to 1050 pixels on its longest side to ensure that you hit the max size that can be handled by some newer projectors. Please limit your pixels to 300 DPI (Dots per inch).
PHOTO FILES
You must provide a title for each of your photo submissions. The title should not identify the photographer.
SUBMISSION CATEGORIES
There will be only two categories – Beginners (Group 1) and Advanced (Group 2). There are no themes. Both categories will be Open categories including Color and Monochrome photos.
HOW TO SUBMIT
Submit photo files via Photo Contest Pro by October 19th. Final submission to the coordinator is November 2nd. The contests have been set up on PhotoContestPro and your pictures can now be uploaded.
JUDGING & AWARDS
The judge will award a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place ribbon in each category. A plaque will be awarded to the club with the highest average score.
Good luck and hope to see you all participate.
