A series of fun photographic competitions set over approx. 3 months of the ‘Lockdown’ based on different themes.
There will be about 6 themes over the course of April, May and June, finishing in July. You never know we may be let out by then!
Each theme will last for 2 weeks and each member will be able to send a maximum of 3 DPI’s. Entries will be JPEG with a maximum file size of 3 MB and must be taken within your own house or garden. Please do not enter photos taken on your allowed daily outside exercise.
When all entries are in, we will send out all the entries to every club member to view and judge all the entries and score 5 images – not your own of course please – no cheating!

After listening carefully to the news about the Coronavirus and discussing with the committee where, as a country, we are, we have decided it is now time to take a cautious step of expanding the horizon, keeping in mind social distancing. Images may be taken outside on your property or within a 5-mile radius. Obviously, we can’t ‘police’ this but we trust you all!
