Small Monochrome Print
Definitions Used and Judging Criteria

• Monochrome images must be black and white (including, as always, neutral tones of gray), or black and white plus one fully-toned color - that is, where a single tint (such as cyan or sepia) is applied across the entire image. Spot color is NOT permitted.
  
  
• Monochrome images are judged both for their technical and pictorial merit. The image must be properly exposed, be appropriately in focus, and have appropriate depth of field. A monochrome image should have strong composition; pleasing quality; and texture, pattern, and/or tone impact. The content is unrestricted.

IN ADDITION:

• Section 1 (General):
  Any monochrome print may be entered. The content is unrestricted.
  
  
• Section 2 (Theme - Pattern/Texture):
  A monochrome image that is dominated by the incorporation of patterns and/or textures.
