The site is open for Entries

Hello fellow members.

The Site is now open to accept entries, we have had a couple of teething problems – but I believe we have sorted them.

PLEASE NOTE: We have had to change the size of digital entries to allow for people NOT TO have to resize their digital foot print for prints. Please follow size according to the rules. We discovered that when resizing from our original size to meet the 1080 Vertical rule it threw out the Horizontal sizing – thus not making it a 2:3 ratio. (I hope it makes sense)

Registration for the day will be open soon.

Registrations for workshops will be completed by a team member this end.

The Site is ready to accept entries.

Can clubs please send a response, if no response is received by Close of Business of 2018. I will assume that the club is agreeing to theproposal. 

Note:

All print entries will need a digital copy added to the website, so that a check can be made, that the judges are judging the correct photo. PLEASE NOTE Prints will be judged as prints, the digital footprint is only for the catalogue and the check to make sure it is the correct print.

All clubs will be responsible for adding their entries ontothe website and a password and instructions will be provided shortly. (January -February )
