33rd Northern Counties International Salon of Photography

Closing Date: Friday 16th August 2012. Less than 4 weeks away

Message from our good friend, NCPF’s Dave Coates

We would like to extend this invitation to all members of the NCPF to enter your own salon. It is YOUR chance to showcase YOUR work to the whole photographic world, but also to support the efforts of your colleagues, who put so much effort into making this event respected worldwide. Don’t miss out; don’t forget to submit your entry. THERE IS STILL TIME! ALL sections in this event are carried out under the patronage of FIAP, PSA and the RPS. Medals and Awards have been granted by all three patrons as well as our own NCPF awards. We expect that at least 1 in 4 entries will be accepted. A full colour catalogue will be sent to all entrants.

This year’s event has FIVE Sections: Monochrome Prints (PPD), Colour Prints (PPD), General PDI (CPID), Nature PDI (ND) and Photo-Travel PDII (PTD)

HOWEVER for Northern Counties entrants the following special facilities are available: Whilst normally PRINTS should be unmounted, NCPF Entrants can also enter MOUNTED Prints provided that you make arrangements to deliver them to Jane Black. (You can of course deliver unmounted prints directly to Jane). Normally Prints will not be returned unless return postage is paid in addition to the Entry Fee. However, provided NCPF entrants make their own arrangements to collect them from Jane Black (whether mounted or unmounted), then that return postage charge can be avoided. Combined Club entries delivered to and collected from Jane are also welcome. The Entry Forms for Prints and Digital Projected Images are SEPARATE and must be completed ON-LINE please. ON-LINE entry and PayPal are available for ALL Sections, Prints and Projected Images. You DO NOT need to have a PayPal account to pay by PayPal.

DPS have an arrangement that David Trout will deliver our members’ print entries provided they are at the club next Thursday.
