Distinctions Workshop Day, Licentiate panels, Associate panels in Nature and Visual Art
St Mary Bourne Village Hall, Andover, SP11 6BE commencing 10:00-10:30.
This is a day to benefit everyone. The day is primarily for people bringing work and looking for advice from the panel of experts. These advisory days are usually very popular so please make sure you book well in advance. Would you also please note that you must have a ticket if you wish to bring work for advice. We normally have a waiting list and the people on that are next in line should there be a cancellation. Please do not bring work on the off-chance that it can be judged as it is not fair to the experts or the folk on the waiting list.
All assessors for Licentiate panels, A panels Nature and for A panels Visual Art are to be confirmed.
Tickets £15 (RPS Members) £20 (Non Members with a £5 voucher toward membership) for those bringing work for advice, £10 for spectators, excludes lunch, please bring a packed lunch.

SEASON TICKETS NOW AVAILABLE FOR 2013 The year will include ...

... plus interactive workshops, discussion sessions and member presentations. 2013 Season Tickets for members of the Digital Imaging Group will be available from 1 October, and for non members (including RPS members who are not DI Group members) from 1 November. Non members may send in their applications now, and we will process them after 1 November in the order they are received. Perhaps now is the time to consider joining the Digital Imaging Group! We have a full and varied programme for you for next year - eight full-day events as this year. Details for some events are still being finalised, and will be published on the RPS web site as soon as possible. And of course we will keep you informed month by month through these emails. Our events can be found HERE: www.rps.org/group/Thames-Valley-Centre/events Ticket prices and how to apply can all be found on the RPS web site HERE: www.rps.org/group/Thames-Valley-Centre/Tickets-for-Events The bargain ticket prices that we have been able to offer you during 2012 must, we regret, be increased to something closer to what they were in 2011, partly because we have are now required to ensure there is a preferential price for DIG members over non members, but primarily, our move to a larger venue has resulted in significantly higher hall rental charges, and has also required the purchase of new equipment. Those who came to our first event at the new venue all agreed that our larger air-conditioned hall was a significant improvement. Our new 2013 ticket prices still offer excellent value for money, I'm sure you will agree. We hope the demand for Season Tickets will not exceed the capacity of the hall (100). but, even so, we advise early application to avoid disappointment. Remember a Season Ticket, for both members and non members, gets you eight events for the price of five. We meet at: WOOSEHILL COMMUNITY HALL Emmview Close WOKINGHAM RG41 3DA We hope that you will join us for our events in 2013, and look forward to seeing you.. Roger Norton, Centre Organiser

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.

GOOD LUCK!
