The North Georgia Camera Club Council (NG3C) is pleased to announce the Sixteenth NG3C
Shootout in Dallas, GA.

NG3C sponsors the annual juried competition for amateur and professional photographers. The
Council membership consists of many camera clubs from North Georgia and East Tennessee.
As this is a competition between camera clubs, photographers must have membership in one of
the clubs to participate in the event. To find a participating club near you and to see the rules
and other current information, visit the NG3C web page:

The event will be held at the Chattahoochee Tech Paulding Campus location on Nathan Dean
Boulevard in Dallas, GA, starting at 8:00 a.m. Participants will be tasked with photographing
subject matter illustrating randomly chosen topics from five photographic categories. Following
the assignment of topics, photographers will spread out into the community to create images for
the competition.

Each club will submit its best entries to NG3C by 2:00 p.m. There will be lectures and door
prizes through the afternoon whilst the images are being judged and ranked. The winning
photographs and the photographers, along with their clubs, will be announced at an awards
program scheduled for 5:00 p.m.

NG3C was formed to promote photography clubs and, as such, the Shootout is a club-centered
event. All Shootout participants are required to be members of a NG3C member club in good
standing.

The 2026 Shootout in Dallas is limited to twelve member clubs, as space is limited at this venue.
Clubs in good standing may state their intent to participate in the Shootout.
NG3C looks forward to welcoming you to Dallas, Georgia this October seventeenth for what
promises to be a fun and rewarding event.

Warmest regards,

Ralph Burr
NG3C VP
