There’s a slight change for our internal competitions this year as we’re introducing the Photo Entry online management system. Once we’re used to it, it will make things easier for everyone. There will be a little for us all to get used to, but it won’t be difficult.
To give everyone a chance to try Photo Entry, we’re running the summer portfolio on it for the first meeting of the session on September 4th. Remember that this year’s theme is minimalism, so make sure you have some simple photos from this summer ready.
Currently open on Photo Entry for submissions:
