| Introduction
Of External Judges - Jan 2012 |
| |
|
|
| |
|
It has been a long
tradition of Highworth Camera Club to have it's members vote on
its monthly competitions and let me assure you that this is one
tradition we intend to honour
From January 2012 we will continue to vote on each others entries
and at the end of the evening, the entry with the most votes will
become our " Print Of The Month"
The prints voted by the members and placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd in
both categories will then be placed on the website as " Monthly
Winners "
At the end of the evening, if you would like your entries to
be critiqued and scored by a independant judge who will visit
us at a later date, then please leave them on the board for collection
at the end of the meeting
Only the scores awarded by the external judges will go towards
the T4 & Memorial Trophy
- members votes are now only for " Print Of The Month "
