NECCC Winter 2015 Electronic Interclub Competition
The Winter 2015 competition, hosted by Greater Bridgeport Camera Club, was held on Wednesday, February 4, 2015. The full report is posted as a pdf on the NECCC interclub webpage. The corresponding photo galleries will be posted soon.
The competition was directed by Antoinette and Bernard Gombeda. Due to inclement weather this competition was held “virtually.” The three judges took advantage of the digital age and did their judging from home. Note that image identification including titles, maker’s names and club affiliation, were omitted from all information sent to the judges. Judging criteria and scoring followed normal procedures.
Forty-one clubs participated in the Pictorial section (18 from Class A and 23 from Class B) and thirty-nine clubs participated in the Nature section (15 from Class A and 24 from Class B). Thanks are extended to the Greater Bridgeport Camera Club for hosting this second competition of the 2014-15 season.
