\"ellis_rosenberg\"<\/a>Role of the Camera Club Judge<\/h1>\n

The camera club judge can be considered in the same light as a reviewer or critic of movies, books or other art forms.\u00a0The judge\u00a0should have knowledge of the subject and be able to articulate specifics about the work. The primary purpose of the review is to educate. Certain criteria are established for each photography\u00a0exhibit and after meeting the criteria, what remains is a subjective appraisal of the work. The judge should be qualified by way of knowledge and experience and with this background be able make informed selections and offer constructive criticisms in a helpful and inspiring manner.<\/p>\n

Criteria for Judging<\/h1>\n

My first consideration would be conformity with the rules of the competition. Next would be the four C\u2019s \u2013 craftsmanship, composition, creativity, and communication. The judging should be a learning experience for everyone involved, including the judge. Negative aspects should be minimized while focusing on the positive attributes of the work. Originality, uniqueness, feeling, mood and capturing the moment would hold a prominent place in the selection criteria.<\/p>\n

Biography<\/h1>\n

As an amateur photographer for over 40 years, I thoroughly enjoy the art form. I previously served eight years\u00a0as Chair of the Reston Photographic Society<\/a> (RPS), and\u00a0a board member of The League of Reston Artists<\/a> which includes the RPS. I also continue serving The Nature Visions Photo Expo (naturevisions.org) as a previous board member and other capacities. \u00a0These positions have provided me with an excellent exposure in the area of judging.\u00a0\u00a0I enjoy photography competitions and as a\u00a0graduate of The Joe Miller Seminar on Judging, I\u00a0endeavor to put the knowledge gained from that seminar together with my experience to be a competent judge. I\u00a0have judged over 20 competitions and hope the participants have benefited from\u00a0and\u00a0enjoyed the competitions as much as\u00a0I have.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Official Photographer\u201d (unpaid) has been my designation on a number of occasions for diverse groups of people and organizations. My wife Gerry,\u00a0also a\u00a0photographer, \u00a0and\u00a0I photograph various\u00a0events and she as director and producer\u00a0combines the photos along with music and effects to make a great Pro Show slide presentation that are cherished by the participants.<\/p>\n
