Each year, the Club conducts a competitive field trip, usually to a unique local venue, in which they compete in seven image subjects. This year the Club chose to photograph sites throughout the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea on January 11, 2015. This year's subjects were designed to showcase the varied landscapes and features of this city through individual interpretation of an eclectic list of subjects including: Architectural Details, Bells, On the Beach, a Dog's Life, Signage, Public Art, and Photographer's Choice. The participants also enjoyed a lunch together during the mid-day light.

The Club has established a three-division competition. Group A - advanced photographers, Group AA - intermediate photographers, and Group AAA - beginning photographers and new members. Presented below are the overall winning shots for each group.
