The Professional Photographers of Oklahoma (PPOK) annual photographic competition offers two separate divisions for entries. The divisions are Photographic Open and Artist. Participants, also referred to as makers or entrants, can enter cases in one or both divisions. The term “case” consists of the combined 6 top scoring entries entered by that maker for each division. Only digital entries will be judged.
