Club Competitions
Purpose
The purpose of the ECC competitions is to
- encourage members to practice their art through seven competitions per season,
- provide educational opportunities for improvement, and
- reward members' photographic achievements.
In addition, competitions provide an educational component. They are judged by Canadian Association for Photographic Art (CAPA) certified judges who also provide verbal critiques. The images and the critiques are then included in a slide show that is part of every monthly meeting.
Participation in the competitions is optional, but encouraged.
Competitions
There are seven category based competitions per season and an Image Of The Year competition which takes place during our end of year banquet.
