Overview

Six Annual Interclub Digital Competition:
Quad Club

Members of the four clubs will be collecting their best images in twenty four defined categories. Each club will then select one image from each of those categories to enter into the Competition. In early May, the four clubs will meet and independent judging will select the best-of-the-best, awarding ribbons to each top entry. Additionally, the scores will be tallied to name the BEST CLUB in the competition.

Images must have been captured in the last two years to be eligible (May 1, 2010 thru April 15, 2012), but no scanned images allowed.

Please note these categories may be interpreted literally or in the abstract. Use your imagination! Be creative. It is up to our club to determine which of our images best represents the category.

This is a great opportunity to stretch your photographic vision, try something new and have some fun. A small committee will review and select the twenty-four images to represent MVCC around the beginning of April.
