POM competitions are open to all members in good standing. There is no time limit on the original
image capture. Both digital and film based images are acceptable and they must have been captured
by the entrant.
In addition:
There will be some number of themed competitions during the year. The themes will be announced by the POM Administrator at least two months prior to the competition month. The competition themes are determined by the Competition Chairman, with input from the CCCC board. Photograph content should be suitable for all age public viewing.
The Submission period opens on the 1st of each month. One digital JPEG with a horizontal dimension of 1280 pixels and/or vertical dimension of 1024 pixels, sRGB color space, should be submitted to the POM Administrator through e-mail at POM@capcitycameraclub.com, on or before the Last day to Submit. Filenames should include the the photographer's first and last names, for example: "First Lastname.jpg". A step-by-step guide to Resizing Images for the POM entries may be found on the Data Files page under the Resources tab on this website or here: Resizing Images for e-mail. The photo should fit into a 1280 x 1024 box but maintain your original aspect ratio.
Club members may submit a single image during the submission period and may vote starting on the
Poll Open date, by selecting the three photographs they judge to
be the best as they are displayed in the poll on the CCCC website.
Voting will remain open through the Poll Closed date. The POM for the year competition occurs late November
among the winners of the previous 11 POM competitions.
