FMC Photo Competition

The FMC (Federated Mountain Clubs) Photo Competetition is an annual photography competition run by FMC, inviting member clubs to submit the best photos taken during the previous year. We'll hold our competition deciding which photos to submit to FMC at our Tuesday meeting on the 10th of September in AM101. The competition is a fab oppurtunity for you to show off your photography skills, win cool prizes, and see some more of what everyone has been up to over the year! 

Entries close 11.59pm Sunday 8th September. Entries will be judged by popular vote of VUWTC members at the Tuesday weekly meeting on the 10th. Prizes will be given to the winner of each category of the VUWTC competition. The top two in each category will be submitted to FMC. Please email submissions to vuwtcpublicity@gmail.com. 

The catogories are: 

• Above bushline no human element (ABN).
• Above bushline with human element (ABW).
• Below bushline no human element (BBN).
• Below bushline with human element (BBW).
• Historic (old photographs, not photos of old things) (HIS).
• Native flora and fauna (NFF).
• Long exposure (LE).
• VUWTC Club Spirit (this is an internal competition and the winning photo won't be submitted to FMC).

A couple of other important things:

• You can enter two photos per category 
• Photos must be from Aotearoa
• Photos must be yours 
• Photos must have been taken in the past year (except historic)
• Photo must be named according to this convention: Category code, club name, photographer, and caption, in that order. For example: ABN, VUWTC, Your name, 'Ruapehu at Sunset'. This rule doesn't apply to the club spirit catogory.
