Members are strongly advised to use the sRGB colour space for all image files, ( sRGB IEC61966-2.1 ).

Taking part in the club competitions is probably the best way to improve your photographic and picture editing skills. Our competitions are in several formats:-

Colour prints
All prints should be mounted in or on card. This is the most satisfying way to present images and creates an impressive result. Although most of us use prints that are up to A3 size, a good A4 image can often be remarkably effective, especially when presenting still life subjects.
The mount for prints must be no larger than 500mm x 400mm, the image title and your name must be on the back of the print.

Monochrome prints

The mount for prints must be no larger than 500mm x 400mm, the image title and your name must be on the back of the print.

Digital Projected Images, ( DPIs )
By far the most popular method of showing your work. It avoids all the hassle and expense of printing and mounting images. This is the best way to start competition work and to gain valuable feedback on your photography, it can be used for both colour and monochrome images.
