What kind of media can be submitted?
Film & Digital Prints
- All prints must be the result of an original image shot directly with a traditional or digital camera. The image must represent a realistic representation of the original subject.
- These prints must result from either:
a) a direct transfer of the film's negative through traditional darkroom techniques, or
b) print shot with a film or digital camera
- Minimum size for these prints (either color or black & white) is 4 3/4" x 6 3/4".
- Maximum number of entries: 2 black & white and 2 colour.
- All prints must have an information tag attached to the back.
Slides
- All slides must be the result of an original image shot directly onto traditional 35mm format slide film.
- The image must represent a realistic representation of the original subject.
- Slides must be clearly labeled indicating title, your name ON THE SIDE TO VIEW FROM. If they are labeled incorrectly, they are judged that way. How to view it is your decision.
Creative Slide, Print or Projected
- Entries in this category may be either color prints, black & white prints, digital images or slides with a maximum of two entries in total.
- Creative entries should express the photographer's ideas/feelings in a nontraditional style through the use of the camera, filters, lens, flash, slide layers, multiple exposures and other such techniques that are decided on before the final exposure is taken.
- Digitally creative prints & projected images may incorporate the use of software to manipulate the entry.
- Composition and appearance of photograph to reflect the visual and artistic intent of the subject matter of that particular clinic.

- A maximum of two images per category may be submitted.
- The digital projector will be calibrated to maintain consistent conditions for projection and judging.
