Hunt and Shoot

Hunt & Shoot Event
Event co-ordinator : Sam Fernando

It's time for our 2023 Hunt & Shoot Competition! This competition is aimed at improving your image capturing skills.  Members are required to take photos under a set number of subjects within the specified time frame and hand over captured images at the end of the time.

Competitors are required to take only two photos under each subject.  Taking many photos and deleting unwanted photos is strictly prohibited and would lead to disqualification.

An independent judge will do the judging.  The judge will not be provided with the names of photographers.  Winners will be selected for each subject category and the overall winner will be selected from these winners.  The overall winner will be awarded the Hunt & Shoot Trophy.  The winning photographs will be shown and awarded at the club end of year function.

The purpose of this competition is to emphasise the importance of taking technically good photos first time in camera and to encourage members to focus on skills to enable taking quality photos.
