Entries for our end of year competition are due on Tuesday 29 October 2019. Of images entered throughout the year, members can select from those to enter the end of year competition with two images in each of:

• Open print
• Colour EDI
• Monochrome EDI

The entry must have been entered into a 2019 monthly competition and in the same format. A print must have been previously entered as a print, and an EDI must have been previously entered as an EDI. An EDI cannot be printed and entered as a print, or vice versa.

On Tuesday 29 October 2019 bring your prints along to be placed in the competition box, but do not resend your EDI files to the competition address, you only need to send through the filename of each entry.

The subject for the President’s Trophy will be announced soon, your entry for that will be due (emailed to the competition address) on Tuesday 5 November 2019.
