To provide the best combination of different methods of to improve photographic skills for members, we provide a number of different competitions, Peer Reviews, informal contests, and other ways that members can display and improve their skills. We host 5 competitions per year that closely adhere to Photographic Society of America (PSA) guidelines, and are judged by internationally acclaimed judges, as well several informal contests that are judged with limited rules by our club members. We also host Peer Reviews in months with formal competitions, where members submit images that are critiqued and improvement suggestions offered by more experienced members. Select the Competition Types menu for more information about the various competitions, Peer Reviews and informal contests.

To assist members with image preparation for competition, Jeanne Scott has prepared a competition check list with tips to help avoid common mistakes and other items that might reduce success when entering competitions.
