The Monthly Challenge is one of the core activities of the Canmore Camera Club. A single topic is chosen for each month and members are asked to submit three photos on that topic around one week prior to the monthly meeting. Each submission is displayed at the meeting, commented on by the respective presenter, and then discussed by the group. Discussions are informal, constructive, fun and non-competitive.
Members may choose to use older photos from their library, however they are urged to submit recent photos taken with the monthly topic in mind. Each member also selects one of their three submissions for display on the homepage of the club website (canmorecameraclub.com).
