CACCA PICK

You are invited to the CACCA pick.  This is when our club members meet to select what we feel are the best prints to enter in the monthly CACCA completion.  Our club can enter 4 prints in each of the 4 categories (Large Mono, Large Color, Small Mono, Small Color). The 4 prints in each category must be from 4 different photographers of our club.

 

This is a great opportunity to meet other members and see the ongoing critique as we try to narrow our selections down to 4.
