• 252 images were received from 63 makers.  (7 makers were OSPS members). 
• Judges viewed the images projected with two digital projectors, each having resolution of 1920x1080, on a 94 inch (2.4m) wide "silver" screen. Images were shown in four groups, each entrant's images divided evenly between them.  Images were placed randomly within each group. The judges previewed each group before scoring.
• A scoring range from 5 to 9 was used, with each judge scoring in accordance with the following guidelines: 9 (Image should be accepted with awards), 8 (Image should be accepted), 7 (Undecided), 6-5 (Not Accepted). 
• After the initial scoring, the acceptance line was drawn at 22 or higher. 139 images were accepted in the Exhibition. 
• The top-scoring images (receiving a score of 25 or higher) were shown again.  After discussion among the judges, awards were given for 1) Best of Show, 2) Best Creative, 3) 3x Judges' Choice, 4) Best OSPS Entry.  There was a re-scroring of the high-scoring images to reduce the number of Honorable Mentions to 18.
