Competitions

Club competitions are a useful way to hear opinions on your and others’ images and get helpful feedback to help improve your photography. Even if you only come to watch you will pick up lots of hints and tips on how to take and prepare better images. External judges are experienced photographers usually from local clubs in Surrey/Sussex. There are Club competitions for prints and digital images (projected digital images PDIs and online digital images ODIs) and images can usually be of any genre, style and have been taken at any time. In “set subject” competitions the judge will select a theme for images. The monthly set subject competition is judged in a vote by Club members.
