Judging: We will try to invite a local photographer to do the judging.
Criteria for judging:
1. How Technically Correct is the Photo?
Are the following the best they can be? Focus, sharpness, detail, depth of field, colour, brightness, contrast, saturation, usage of light.
2. Subject Matter / Content
How well does it fall within the brief/assignment?
Creativity.
3. Composition
Does the photograph tell a story?
Where is our eye lead to in the photograph?
Is the photograph balanced, if not, is it creating the visual impact it should?

Like all art this is dependent on our own tastes, likes, dislikes and the way we see the world and experience it. It has nothing to do with how experienced photographer is.
