Submitted by Heather Dawe


The Canadian Association of Photographic Art (CAPA) 2011 Annual Digital Competition is
underway. This competition is open only to CAPA Individual and Family members, who are living in Canada.
For the first time ever in the seven-year history of CAPA’s Digital Competition, contestants will have a choice between two themes, similar in concept, but completely different in rendition.
The assignment is to provide the CAPA judges with Shadowplay or Silhouette. Participation is limited to two entries per member, one image per theme or both on the same topic. You can submit either colour or B&W images. Manipulation in Adobe Photoshop and other software is permitted. Keep in mind though that CAPA is looking for digital photographs and illustrations originating from photographs that have been produced with taste and imagination. Remember, CAPA is all about photographic art. And art should be created with care and love. Judging will be carried out in Ottawa in early October, and the results will be announced on the CAPA Website shortly thereafter.

Guidelines.pdf
All entries must be submitted electronically no later than midnight (Pacific Standard Time: GMT-8:00) September 30th, 2011, through the CAPA website at www.digitalcapacanada.ca. If you participated in a previous year, you need not register again; you can use the same login and password. For new participants, all you need to do is register using your CAPA Member Number (i.e. 28999) and a valid e-mail address. Please make note of the password the software will generate for you. All participants will be confirmed as members in good standing and living in Canada against the CAPA database, before their entries are accepted and judged at the end of the competition. Your registration will also make it possible for you to change your mind and submit a different entry up to the very last moment.
Please note that e-mail and regular mail entries will NOT be accepted, and will NOT be
returned. The Rules and Guidelines governing this competition are posted on the CAPA
Website and can be downloaded and printed for your convenience.
E-mail enquiries should be sent to http://Jacques@CAPACanada.ca. Make sure you include the title of the competition and the word CAPA in the Subject line, or your message may be tagged as spam and not reach its destination.
