CLUB COMPETITIONS

Five internal competitions are held throughout the season. Competition entries are welcomed from all club members in two sections:

Prints, and/or  Digitally Projected Images (DPIs)

 

Competitions may be targeted to a specific theme, or are 'open' (i.e. the author's own choice of subjects),

​

Members are encouraged to enter up to 3 Prints and up to 3 DPIs in each competition. These images may be colour, monochrome or a combination of the two - depending on any themed requirement.  Entries must be the member’s own work: only fully-owned images may be submitted for competitions.

​

SEND YOUR ENTRIES to  Jill Ming, Competition Secretary  no later than the Sunday preceding a competition, using the following address:- longmyndcameraclub@gmail.com

​

Please familiarise yourself with the PDF 'GUIDE FOR ENTRIES'  (see below) before submitting images to the Competition Secretary

​

In the interests of moving your photography forward you are encouraged to submit work that is as recent as feasible, and ideally entries for themes should consist of images taken following the announcement of the theme (e.g. at the previous AGM)

• The Photographer of the Year, being the member gaining most points in total, i.e. from both the Prints and DPIs sections;
