Digital Images

At almost every meeting, members are invited to bring in their work for a friendly discussion and comment sessions to promote an environment of continuous learning and improvement.

Submissions are usually digital but prints can also be presented. See guidelines below.

To help prepare members who are interested in having their work entered into public competitions, the club sometimes uses a competition format, judges are offered a chance to test their skill at providing a constructive critique of the entries.
