Here are the assigned subjects for
this season ASSIGNED SUBJECTS 2010-2011
Changes to NHCC Category Competition for 2008-09 At the Executive Committee meeting in July several changes were made to the Category Competition (sometimes referred to as the assignment competition) for next season. This rest of the rules as stated in the NHC handbook http://www.newhavencameraclub.org/handbook.htm still apply. For example, Category images still must not be older than 5 years old. The changes will make the Category Competition more like the Open Competitions, will make the Category Competition more meaningful, and will increase the opportunity for more members to have their photographs selected as ribbon winning photographs. The winning images are those who show the best interpretation of the category title which adheres to definition. As was true last year, there will be a Category Competition only for electronic (digital) photographs. The rule changes are: 1. The Category Competition will be scored by the judges using the SAME numerical scoring system that is used to score the Open Competitions. The in and out scoring system will be eliminated. 2. Ties will not be broken, again like the Open Competitions. 3. The number of photographs that may be entered by a member into a given Category Competition is reduced to 2 from the current 3, again like the Open Competitions. 4. Unlike the Open Competitions, no make-up photographs will be permitted. 5. To qualify for the High Cumulative Score in the Category Competition, a member must submit at least 10 photographs of the possible 16 photographs. A member who submits more than 10 photographs will have his/her cumulative score determined by summing the highest scoring 10 photographs. Thus, it is to your advantage to enter as many photographs as possible since the 10 highest scoring photographs will be used to determing the final score. The special assigned subject electronic competition is held each month (held in addition to the regular image competitions). The categories for the assigned subject competitions for the season are determined at the last meeting by popular vote of the members attending the meeting. The results are announced at the Awards Banquet. In contrast to the general competition of (prints, electronic, slides), which have no time limit, special category electronic images must not be older than 5 years. This competition is conducted after the regular electronic photograph competition has been concluded. In these competitions all members compete together.
