Internal Print Competitions (2026-27 Season)

Prints must be submitted to the Internal Print Competition Secretary at the meeting that takes place one week prior to the competition. In addition PDI images of your entries must also be submitted to the Internal Print Competition Secretary using the PhotoEntry system, the deadline for this is the same as with the prints themselves, i.e. one week prior. Image requirements are the same as for PDI competitions. Follow the instructions in the Image Authoring Advice section on the Documents page of this site if in doubt.

Full instructions for using the Photoentry system can be found in the following document:

PhotoEntry Guidance

• Images MUST be on a 50cm x 40cm mount. This is a universal and specified size of print mount which was established to avoid damage caused by smaller prints to others when placed in a pile prior to judging. Prints should be in a Window Mount however a “full page bleed flush mounted image”, namely one that covers the whole area of the mount, is also acceptable but please note that damage to the print edges during handling may occur. Please ask if you need help cutting mounts.

• Minimum print area 308 sq cm (48 sq inches).
  Equates to approximately 20.5 x 15.02 cm or 8 x 6 inches.

• Image title and the name of the photographer to be clearly shown on the rear of the mount in the top left hand corner when viewed from the back.

• The front of the image shall not show any identification as to the photographer.

• Printed borders – as required by yourself.

• Note that pre-cut-to-size mount-board, backing board and masking tape can be purchased through the club at bulk prices. Please speak to Vic Hainsworth (01206 562993) for details.

You are urged to review the rules and other details relating to our competitions and take careful note of the changes that may have occurred from last season.
