You should refer to the rules for each competition as stated in section 3 of the handbook which is on the SLF website at:
http://www.fslps.org/pagesection3.htm .
Certificate Winners Comps - as usual, clubs that have not gained a certificate in a discipline in the current season can pick a 'Club Champion' from the top scoring work in their inter-club panel to enter into the Certificate Winners competition for that discipline (there is no fee for such entries). A full list of certificate winners and those eligible to pick Club Champions will be issued when all Plate Rounds & Semi-finals have been completed.
Open Competitions - this year, to encourage wide participation, there will be no fees to enter the Open Competitions. Up to two entries per author per competition.
Please note that the re-use of images in more than one discipline in the Open Competitions is not allowed.
If we have more print entries than we can display in the exhibition, we will try to display the first print from each entrant in each competition. Digital files of any prints we cannot display in the exhibition will be displayed in a slideshow.
Information re Prints:
All prints must be on 40 x 50 cm mounts. They must be mounted with a backing board and there must be nothing on them that might damage other work - please use mounting tape (not masking tape!)
All prints must have the Print Title, Author, Club and Club Reference Letter clearly marked on the back (a list of club reference letters is attached to this email).
A digital file (1400 x 1050 pixel resolution) must accompany ALL prints, including those in the Inter-club Finals & Certificate Winners Competitions. If the author is unable to provide a digital file of a print, the Club Coordinator should photograph the print and submit the resulting file
Note: Any prints not conforming to the above will not be accepted.
All PDIs to be submitted in 1400 x 1050 pixel resolution.
Digital files must be uploaded to PhotoEntry by your club's Finals Day Coordinator.
The Finals Day PhotoEntry competitions will be available in February and details will be sent to Club Coordinators when they are available.
The closing date for uploading digital files of entries is 3rd March 2019.
At the Delegates' Meeting on 7th March, the Club Coordinator should hand in:
· Prints
· Money for tickets (cheques made payable to 'The Federation of South London Photographic Societies')
· Trophies currently held by your club (list attached)
We hope that you will encourage your members to support us by entering the Open Competitions and attending on the day. If you have any further questions, please contact me.
The Federation Committee needs your support to run this event. As well as having at least one volunteer from each club, we need a Finals Day projectionist to work with Steve Wilbur and also someone to coordinate the team of volunteers. I will be in touch with further details on that shortly. If you can help out, please let me know.
