Entering N4C Competitions

For those wishing to get more feedback, or a different point of view, regarding your photographic skills, you can submit your work to the monthly N4C events.

Slides:
You can enter one slide in each of the following categories:

  • 2 X 2 Pictorial
  • 2 X 2 Nature
  • 2-1/4 X 2-1/4 slides
  • Contemporary
  • Photojournalism
  • Photo-Travel

Prints:
You can also enter one print in each of these categories:

  • Black & White (no class)
  • Nature - Class A or B (A-you print)
  • Color A or B
  • Contemporary
  • Photojournalism

Slide Essay:
You can send in two entries every other month for Stereo slides and an annual "Slide Essay". (Here is a PDF with more information)

Slides, prints, and slide essays must be given to Dick Gagne by the 9th of the month that they are being judged, so that they can be sent to the judging club, somewhere in the eleven state N4C Region. You will get a sentence or two feedback, as well as a score.

Digital Images:
Starting in 2006-07, the N4C is implementing a digital competition. The only category is open and the club as a whole can enter up to 8 images, one per member.

If you are interested in entering, email your images to n4ceval@lacrosseareacameraclub.org or get them to Peder on a CD. Images must be in jpg format, sized to 1024x768, and have the title as the filename. They must be received by the first meeting each month. If we receive more than eight entries, the club will need to pick the best eight to send. If we receive less than eight entries, we will ask the makers of the top photos in our previous monthly competition permission to submit those to make up the difference.

For more information on any of these competitions ask a board member, or refer to the N4C Handbook.
