Overview of the NWCCC Traveling Salon

OPCC, as a member of the NWCC, has chosen to participate in the 2024 Traveling Image Salon.  The NWCCC started the Traveling Print Salon as a surrogate for what had been a Traveling Print Salon after camera clubs stopped meeting in person due to COVID. 

In contrast to typical photo contests, this is not a “1 and done” process in which participants submit an image and then sit back and await the results.  In this contest, the club members also participate as judges.  Viewing and voting will be facilitated by online links provided by NWCCC to OPCC.  We will be voting on another club's submission on a monthly basis over the span of February through September.

At the end of the voting period, the NWCCC TIS Director will select the TIS finalists by tallying the votes for each club's submissions.  Winning and Honorable Mention awards will again be selected based on the vote counts of each finalist.

Awards will be 1st, 2nd, 3rd Place, Honorable Mentions, and Special Awards in categories like Portrait, Photojournalism, Nature, Creative, Landscape, Monochrome, Macro, etc.

Click HERE for the instructions on how to size, name and submit your images. Club members may submit up to 3 images using the Upload Files process on the website. All entries must be uploaded by January 27, 2024, no later than 11:55 PM.

OPCC will submit the club entries (between 20-25 images) to NWCCC on January 29, 2024.

Monthly Voting (February through September).  Members from each club views images of another clubs’ submissions and votes their preferences using NWCCC online viewing and voting.  At the end of each month, the club tallies the votes and sends them to NWCCC.
