Yes although we have only just had judging of the KF3 entries it’s time already for you to select your entries for our prestigious final competition of the year!
We MUST have seen the image THIS year in any of the official Club competitions including President’s Cup, Ken Maynard Trophy or any of the Ken Farnell KF1, 2 or 3.
Additionally you may enter ANY image which has been selected to represent the club in any of THIS year’s Inter-Club Competitions (Battles)
NB Images from any more informal “fun” competitions such as Amanda’s “Lucky Dip” etc are NOT acceptable. If in doubt please ASK Amanda.
The categories are Print, Digital and Off Camera with the subject OPEN along with the standard club-specified sizing and titling. Best of luck to everyone.
