December Mylinda Cane Creative Photographer of the Year Award This award is given in memory of Mylinda Cane who was both a wonderful photographer and a very good friend to the club. Due to many reasons it was not able to be held until December. It is important for each individual to consider entering an image to remember that creativity is a highly subjective concept. In this competition, the definition of creativity is in the eye of the individual image maker. In other words, if you believe you have an image reflecting great creativity, please consider submitting it to be evaluated by the club membership and perhaps it will be chosen as a creative image of the year. The rules are really simple this year. You will upload up to 3 images to the Mylinda Cane competition in the Competition Assistant. That competition name will be added to the Competition Assistant as it gets closer to the end of November. You will be notified when you can begin uploading. They may be either a color image or a monochrome image. There are no rules on what may be considered a creative image. That is, any image judged by the individual image maker to be creative in some aspect or another may be submitted. That is all you have to think about right now. We are working on the judging aspects of the contest and will get that information to you when it is ironed out. For now get creative and work on images to enter. I would aim to have your images ready to upload by Sunday November 29.
