PCC 2023 Set Subject Competition Night @ Rothwell hall
Dec 8 @ 7:30 pm – 9:45 pm
Members

 

Due to the number of set subjects listed for 2023, the MC decided to create an additional competition in MPC that focus on 3 of the set subjects for 2023. The idea is that we use the remainder of the year to work on some of the identified set subjects together, go out in informal groups, create images and get together on 8 December at the club and as members and discuss the images rather than getting a judge. 

It is an opportunity for us as members to have social interaction, learn from each other, create some new images, edit and discuss our images in a non-competitive environment. 
The focus will be on the 3 PCC inter-club subjects for 2023 nl;
  • Night photography – “Refers to the activity of capturing images outdoors at night, between dusk and dawn. Images taken at twilight during the so called “blue hour” before sunrise or after sunset are not acceptable. The intent is to have a true night-time image without any residual daylight or sunlight.
  • Intentional Camera Movement – “Moving the camera or the lens during the exposure, to deliberately blur the elements and create an artistic image. (Example: During exposure zooming the lens, or moving the camera, up, down, sideways, in a circle or upside down)”
  • Abandoned – “Having been deserted or to leave behind and never to return, left unoccupied or unused, desolate, forgotten, forsaken, rejected. A physical act. Example: An abandoned car in paddock.”
4 entries per member in each of the 3 categories (12 images total per member). No grading (OPEN only).
For those members who wishes to host a outing or workshop, please send a mail to the club’s email with the details and we will send out an invite to everyone wishing to attend.

Social Documentary:

Social documentary photography is the recording of what the world looks like, with a social and/or environmental focus, and aims to draw the public’s attention to ongoing social or environmental issues. It is often associated with the photographer providing a critical review / assessment of these issues and how people act on them. In these cases, the photographer also often advocates for the people impacted, trying to draw the public’s attention to the topic documented. Images need to be black and white (grey tonal range) and not toned with any colour.

NOTE: You should upload your entries no later than 11:59am Friday after the previous Competition night.
e.g. To enter the July Competition, you need to upload your entries into MPC no later than 11:59am Friday in June after competition night.
