Judging

All images submitted for the Len Trumble\Helen D’Amico Competition will be sent to outside judges for scoring.

To improve scoring consistency all judges (internal and external) are given a copy of the WCC Judging Guideline to help guide them to give a proper score.



WCC Judging Guideline for Digital Competitions

To improve consistency in the scoring of the images presented during competitions, The Welland Camera Club asks that you follow this simple guideline when issuing a score.  We all like some topics more than others, but please do not allow this to be a major decision in selecting a score. Please score each images out of 10 based on the following guideline.

5 – DEFICIENTAn image would receive this score because the main subject is out of focus, the exposure is significantly under/over, or the image lacks composition.
6 or 7 – AVERAGEThe image is mostly in focus and generally properly exposed. The image has the elements of good composition but may lack in the handling of the composition elements. The effectiveness of the image is reduced because of mergers, distracting hot areas, improper cropping, off colour, or the colour harmony is off.
8 or 9 – ABOVE AVERAGEAll the main photographic elements exist. The image is properly focused and exposed, has good composition, handles colour well, has no mergers, contains no distracting hot areas and does not have large areas of wasted space.
10 – EXCEPTIONALImages that contain excellent lighting, NO technical flaws, and has visual impact. An image of this calibre should be expected to score well in any competition.
