1Opmist Photography Contest
OPTIMIST
PHOTOGRAPHY
CONTEST 
iMagine Highlighng “The Opmist Creed”
Photographers for the contest should be students at any age up through high school and prior to post-
secondary educaon. Students are asked to submit photos that illustrate/exemplify one of the ten verses/lines
of “The Opmist Creed”.
Purpose
To expose young people to “The Opmist Creed” and our philosophy of Opmism and to assist them with developing an
interest in the area of photography.
1. This provides an avenue for a student’s arsc expression through photos.
2. The contest introduces both students and parents to “The Opmist Creed” as our philosophy. It makes them aware of a
local Opmist club, its acvies, and can serve as an opportunity to promote membership.
Rules
Each Opmist club may conduct its own contest and select the winners by whatever method of judging the club deems
appropriate but should adhere to guidelines. Many clubs will ulize experienced photographers/art teachers as judges
(some of your club members may have this type of experience).
1. A club may conduct their contest with students from elementary through high school. Entries may be from any age
range, or a club may wish to limit its own contest for example, to middle school, or high school.
2. Club should select three winning photos to be idened as a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prize. You have an opon to select
a Grand Place/Grand Prize winner overall as well. Club will decide whether it will give medals, plaques, or something
else as their prizes. All contestants should receive a parcipaon cercate. If all entries are to be displayed at an event,
you can conduct a “People’s Choice Award” as well, this would be done by ballots (one ballot per aendee).
3. Photos are to be judged for the photography quality and for how well the photo illustrates/exemplies the verse of the
Opmist Creed, which is idened on the photo mat frame. A beauful photograph which does not match the Creed
statement it aempts to illustrate, is not necessarily beer that a lesser photo that is more to the point.
4. Photos may be any of these sizes: 4” x 6”, 5” x 7”, or 8” x 10”, black and white or color photo. NO photo-shopping
enhancements should be used other than basic cropping of the photo.
5. Photos should be maed, with “The Opmist Creed” verse/line stated clearly on the front of the mat frame, so judges
will know what the photo is to exemplify. The photographer’s name and other idenfying informaon, including the
entry form should be aached to the back.
6. To increase the number of entered photos, a club may allow each student photographer to submit more than one
photo, up to three. However, no contestant may be awarded prizes for more than one photo.

7. Clubs can select their winners by any procedure they desire (a single judge, small panel of qualied judges, vote of
members at a club meeng where the photos are displayed). A scoring criteria sheet has been provided in the Opmist
Photography Contest informaon. This contest is new and is a club level contest, but the club’s rst place photo should
be sent to the District for display during the District Oratorical Contest, and receive vong for a “People’s Choice Award”.
This is another avenue to engage parcipants, their parents/guardians, and other aendees at an Opmist program.
One ballot per aendee is permied. A ballot box will be provided and a person designated to tally those votes and
announce the winner at the District Oratorical Contest, plus provide something as the award for being selected the
“People’s Choice Award” winner for the District. Please share a copy of the winning photos with your district and OI.
Please recognize winners in your club’s newsleer, etc. All clubs should complete their contest by August 1, 2020, but
may determine their own due date/deadline date for photos to be submied for judging.
8. If contest winners will be by a ballot vote of the aendees (one ballot per person), the votes will be tallied with a weight
of 5 points for a rst place vote, 3 points for a second place vote, and 1 point for a third place vote, with the highest vote
totals being awarded the prizes. Depending on the number of photos submied, some adjustment to the procedures
may be required in order to clearly establish the top three photographs.
9. If there are any addional quesons, contact the Chairperson for the contest.
10. RULES AND DATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
