AWARDS FOR PHOTOGRAPHIC MERIT – CLOSED PRINT ADJUDICATION

Provided that the imminent Covid Restriction update for England permits us to gather with more than 12 people indoors, the catch up PRINT Adjudication for CPAGB, DPAGB

and MPAGB will take place on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 June. Unfortunately no audience can be permitted for this event and we really miss you!

We thank all the applicants for their patience. Many of you have waited more than 12 months, and we will aim to get the results out as soon as we can. Good luck to everyone.

We are planning for Adjudications to return to their normal format with the November Adjudication hosted by the Western Counties and there are still places available at all three levels. Contact your Federation Awards Officer.

The choice of work is entirely up to the participants and may include a collage of related images on a single large canvas or several individual images. This approach has encouraged creativity both in the images and in their presentation.

Print exhibitions have been few and far between this last year but the PSA International has a SMALL PRINT section, which will be judged in The cost of posting small prints makes the event more economical to enter. This exhibition is open to all whether or not you are a member of PSA. This exhibition is organised on behalf of the PSA by Hoylake Photographic Society and West Cumbria Photo Groups. Thanks are due to these organisations, without which this Print Exhibition could not take place.

Open Now. Closing 20 August 2021

FREE CATALOGUE for every Entrant, every

Club and every member of a Federation Executive! But you

need to register your address to receive your copy.

LAST CHANCE - ORDER BY 29 JUNE

Previous editions of the catalogue have been hailed as the best catalogue produced in the UK and “masters of print 4” will be equally lavish. A beautifully embossed cover, very little text and a full page for every photograph selected – the very best of UK amateur photography which will excite and inspire you.

We are extremely grateful to Permajet, Inkjet Paper & Canvas Specialists, who will underwrite the cost of sending a free catalogue to everyone who is entitled to receive a copy. See the Ordering Instructions to claim your copy.

If you don’t qualify to receive a free catalogue, you can buy a copy at a heavily discounted cost.

This discount is only guaranteed until 29 June, when it is likely that the price will revert to £20, much more representative of its quality and content. Follow the instructions in the box but register as an individual. You will then be able to pre-order and pay online for a copy to be sent directly to you.

We have a limited number to sell or give away free so, please, DON’T DELAY.

PAGB and Masters of Print sponsors, Permajet have taken on the work and the cost of delivering the catalogues direct to your door, but only if you register and order by 29 June.
