Montreal Camera Club/Honours Awards Program
Introduction
In 1954 the late Walter F. Wood ARPA, FPSA established a system of Honours Awards for the Montreal Camera Club. Developed from the awards principals of the RPS, PSA, and FIAP, the system allows a member to track their progress in the club.
But the purpose of these awards is to reward members not only for photographic proficiency but also for their contribution to the club as volunteers, on the executive and through support of other club activities. As well, the awards are designed to encourage members to enter national and international photographic competitions and to become active on committees of national and international societies.
A member progresses from the initial Pictorialist award to the more difficult advanced stages in the system until he or she reaches the highest level, the Fellowship.
Over the years the rules governing these Honours Awards have been modified to meet changing conditions, However the goals remain unchanged. To qualify for the top Honour Awards requires a high degree of photographic and service achievement at the club as well as participation in photographic activities at the national and international level.
Comments are welcome as to updates to the program to reflect web and social media uses of photography and support of the Montreal Camera Club. Please respond to honours@montrealcameraclub.com
