Visions is a club that welcomes all levels of photographers.  Our internal competitions are friendly and everyone should feel comfortable entering.

We try to keep the rules to a minimum  – the main aims of these competitions are to have fun and to improve our photography in that order!

All Internal Competitions

1. We would like to encourage all members to enter these fun competitions.
2. Please submit no more than 2 images each.
3. Images may be taken on any camera or phone.
4. Images may be straight out of the camera, edited images or composite images so long as all elements were taken by the photographer.
5. Images should be submitted as best quality jpegs.
   • The max sizes are  width:1600px  and height:1200px but PhotoEntry will resize any larger photos for you. If the photo is only a little larger than the required size PhotoEntry will not do a good job and you will get a warning message. In this case it is better to resize correctly before you upload your photos.
   • Also there is a file size limit of 10 Mb. Again if your file size is larger than this you would need to resize before uploading.
   • The ideal colour profile is sRGB – you will get an error message if you submit another colour profile but you can ignore this.
6. Entries should be uploaded to Photo Entry by midnight on the closing date.  If you have provided your email address to the club then an account will have been created for you.  You should have received an email from Photo Entry with your login details.
   • PhotoEntry How To Use.
7. Please ask any committee member if you need any help submitting your images.
8. Only paid up members may enter these competitions, so please check you have paid the treasurer for this quarter.
