The East Anglian Federation of Photographic Societies Annual Exhibition 2023 Entries

This event will take place at the Wingfield Barns, Eye, in Suffolk from Saturday, 29th April, with the official opening by the Federation President and presentation of the awards at 2.00pm, and closing at 1.00pm on Thursday, 11th May. Showcasing some of the best photography in our region, this is well worth a visit. You could have lunch at the nearby De La Pole Arms restaurant, Church Road, Wingfield, IP21 5RA, (advisable to book in advance).

I appreciate that it may seem a long way off at the moment but now is the time to start thinking about your selection. This is one event where you can choose which images you want to submit and, although they are submitted through the club, our selection committee have no say in what goes forward, so I am giving you all plenty of notice.

The rules and entry forms are all on our Society’s website (see below); please read them carefully. You can submit a maximum of 4 PDIs, 3 Colour and 3 Mono Prints. Please do not use any other entry form other than our club entry form.

This year we are again going to use the ‘Photo Entry System’, which everyone seems to have mastered so far. The deadline will be Tuesday, 28th February. You will need PDIs to accompany all print entries.

Please download the word document entry form from the club website. The file name of any PDI submitted must be the same as the PDI or Print title entered on the entry form and, in the case of the prints, the same as the title on the back of the print itself (variations in the past have presented problems). Send it to Steve Robinson, publicitysecretary@colchesterphotosoc.co.uk by no later than Tuesday, 28th February. No late entries please. The cost is 60p per image, payable in cash only please, to Steve Robinson by that date.

Prints can be handed to me before, but by no later than, Tuesday, 7th March, which is the final round of the Colour Print League. Again, no late entries please.

There could be a shortage of images this year, so please give it some thought and make a submission. Last year we had a very good entry with many of you getting acceptances. Sadly, there will be some prints which will not get through the judges’ selection on Sunday, 2nd April. These will be available on Tuesday, 11th April club night which is the final round of the Mono league.

I hope to see a good response from you and the very best of luck to you all.

– Vic Hainsworth (President)
