Overview

CVDCC normally holds image competitions at regular Club meetings during the Club year. On competition months, images may be entered into different competition Categories (such as Nature, Travel etc). Images in different formats (such as print, slide, or digital) are entered into separate Divisions. Entries must conform with Club Requirements and are entered in two different Skill Levels (Intermediate and Advanced). Judging is mostly performed by qualified non-members (although there is occasional member judging) who judge according to pre-defined Judging Standards. Awards are issued at each competition, and there are also Annual Awards announced at the Annual Banquet.
