Photography Judging is an essential guide for all photographers who judge photography.

It offers essential reading and reference material for those who wish to enter their images to photography competitions, awards, or salons.

Photography Judging is a handbook for those who carry any responsibility for judging photographic entries for awards or prizes

at any level.

If you are, or have been invited to be a photography judge this book gives you all the information you need to perform your duties with skill, flair, and fairness. With the thousands of competitions, awards, salons worldwide, there is a pressing need for a clear, authoritative manual to guide photojudges.

This book is that manual.

Certain questions about judging photography recur. On every continent, in every country, every photography judge will be asked variants of these queries.

-'How do you judge a photograph?'

-'How can you spot the one great photograph among thousands of others?'

-'Surely photography is totally subjective?'

-'What's the difference between a good photograph and a bad one?'

This book is essentially a long answer to those questions. In doing so, I hope to help you become a skillful, subtle, prudent judge of photographs; and, by the end, that you'll appreciate there's much less subjectivity and more objectivity than you might have first thought.
