This competition comprises monthly rounds (July – June) with 12 set subjects around a common theme. Each member can submit up to three images each month. Each member (whether they have submitted images or not) can then vote for their favourites each month. The top three images in each month go through to the final in June. The aim of this competition is to encourage new images – but archive images can be used though the images should not have been used previously in competitions. Members often try out new images in this competition before using them (or variations) in the judged Club competitions. Further guidance can be downloaded here.

See programme for the set subject, submission dates, voting and results dates for each month.
