Photographic Competition - Europe is Beautiful

CEWE PHOTOBOOK needs you...

A couple of months ago we launched a fabulous photographic competition called EUROPE IS BEAUTIFUL, which as the name suggests, is a Europe wide competition celebrating the beauty and diversity of our continent.

http://contest.cewe-fotobuch.de/eib2012/en

However, it¹s come to our attention that the United Kingdom & Northern Ireland is falling behind some other European countries, in terms of number of photos entered, and so we¹d like to invite you and your society members to take part and show us your BEST OF BRITISH.

2012 has been such a great year to be British... we celebrated the Queen¹s diamond Jubilee as well as huge success at the Olympics and Paralympics, and despite the fact that it¹s been a rather wet summer, we still feel sure that you have loads of fantastic photos lurking on your laptops. So, why not share them and be in with a chance to win one of 500 amazing prizes that are on offer.

Loads of prizes to win...

http://contest.cewe-fotobuch.de/eib2012/en/main/prizes

Let¹s show the rest of Europe just how beautiful our country is and how proud we are of these fair Isles.

Entering is simple! Just go to the competition site and register your details: http://contest.cewe-fotobuch.de/eib2012/en/photos/add

Then you are free to upload up to 5 of your best photos to be in with a chance to WIN!

The competition closes on 31st December 2012 after which winners will be notified. T&C¹s apply http://contest.cewe-fotobuch.de/eib2012/en/tos

If you need any further information please don¹t hesitate to contact Sarah Brockhurst at CEWE PHOTOBOOK via email sarah.brockhurst@cewecolor.co.uk or phone on 0845 605 3953.

You’re history!

Hi,
I was wondering if any your members interested in “photographing history” might like come along an enjoy You’re history!* at Broadlands, Romsey, Hampshire on 22-23 September.
This is a major Classical Greek to 1990s multi-era living history show with 700 performers from 50 top groups, battles, displays, encampments, children’s entertainments and more, all set within a beautiful setting and carefully arranged to be as photogenic as possible – so, no burger vans, other visitors or modern intrusions spoiling the backdrop of displays etc.
We’ve found that photographers and their families love this show (now in its third year) so perhaps you might like to make your members (and other photographic groups that you might know) aware of it? Full details including the timetable of displays is posted up at www.you’rehistory.co.uk or www.eventplan.co.uk
* previously known as Blasts from the Past!
Please note that we aren’t able to offer special access for safety reasons because of the horses, guns, other weapons and explosives in use, and we ask photographers to observe our usual viewing arrangements (eg by not standing up in front of those seated & viewing behind), but we find that everybody is able to take plenty of excellent shots. The living history areas are of course ideal for photographers, and the re-enactors will often pose for particular shots.
Admission is very reasonable, only £10 adult, £5 child or £25 family of four. We recommend coming on the Saturday because as there is so much to see, visitors often like to come back on the Sunday. Tickets are available each day (only).
I do hope that your members will be interested!
All the best

Bryan Webb course at Ammerdown

Following the summer break, I should imagine that camera clubs are starting to meet to discuss new ideas, competitions and the thought of the beautiful autumn colours that will follow over the next few months.

Some of you may know of Bryan Webb a teacher/trainer of all things relating to photography who lives in Exmouth. Here at Ammerdown we are very much looking forward to welcoming him back to lead a weeks Autumn Photo project in the beautiful surrounds of the Ammerdown Centre which is in the Somerset countryside on an idyllic estate.

It would be great to see some of the Wiltshire Clubs members come along and share the experience and I have attached for you to share amongst your members etc a flyer with all the details on which includes a booking form and a link to our website which leads you to further information about Bryan and the course.

With Best Wishes

FIAP DISTINCTIONS CRITERIA

Have assured your FIAP Liaison Officer as late, as July this year, that the announced changes to the criteria would go ahead, FIAP have now changed their minds! At their Directory Board Meeting, held immediately before opening of the FIAP Congress in Singapore, they decided to defer the changes, and on the opening day of Congress announced that the changes to the criteria for AFIAP, EFIAP and MFIAP would not now come into force until the 1st July 2013.

This means that the 2013 submission of applications will now be subject to the criteria that were in forced in 2012. The relevant documents on the PAGB Website are being updated and if not already done, then they will be as soon as the Webmaster can implement the changes. The replacement documents will be annotated with the words "Post FIAP Congress". You should refer to them for full details.

I am aware that this change might well be greeted with enthusiasm by many, but there will be a number of others seeking EFIAP for whom the changes might be less welcome. Please understand that I have already made representations about these issues, but as was pointed out to me, there will always be some who lose out when changes are made.

Dave Coates. FIAP Liasion Officer.
