Recent Annual Awards

Points are accrued for winning images in monthly competitions, with 10 points given for a First Place ribbon down to six points for an Honorable Mention ribbon. Annual awards recognize the three members who accumulated the most points during each year. Also see Star Ratings.

The competition at the top is intense, and those winners listed below have demonstrated consistent proficiency in photography through the year. We also honor the highest point holder in each of the Advanced classes by designating them Photographer of the Year in that category. Trophies and plaques are awarded at the end-of-year banquet in June of the year listed.
