Cancellation of Print Nights and 2021 Print Competitions
At our August Committee Meeting the difficult decision was taken to cancel the remaining Print Nights and the 2021 Print Competitions as a result of the unfolding Covid 19 outbreak in the Greater Sydney and Hunter regions. Your committee understands how important these nights are to members socially and to what the club is able to offer from a photography perspective. Rest assured the committee will be monitoring the Covid 19 situation and the health guidelines and will advise the resumption of our Print Competition nights when it is safe and practicable to do so.
As we did last year all members who have submitted entries in the 2021 Print Competitions can now re-enter those images in the remaining digital competitions so that they can ultimately enter the same image in the club Image of the Year Competitions.
In lieu of the monthly competition nights the club will offer image evaluation sessions along the same lines as we ran earlier in July. All members are encouraged to upload images for discussion and evaluation by 11.55pm on Tuesday 17th August. The image evaluation session will be held via ZOOM on the following Wednesday night, 18th August.

July Competition Night Cancelled
Due to the current Covid 19 situation in the Greater Sydney area and the current restrictions in Newcastle the club committee has decided it would be prudent and in the best interest of members to cancel the July Competition Night. The current situation is evolving rapidly and there was a strong indication at the most recent briefings by the Premier that the current lock down in Sydney would continue into the week of our July Competition Night. Your committee will continue to monitor the advice from N.S.W. Health and the daily briefings from the N.S.W. Government. Resumption of Competition Nights will be dependent on the status of the current Covid 19 outbreak and advice from the N.S.W. Government.

2021 Portfolio Competition
Club members may recall that we had an excellent ZOOM presentation from Craig Parker earlier in the year on his entry of a Photographic Portfolio to The Photographic Society of America (PSA).
Craig has agreed to judge a club Portfolio Competition later this year. The competition would be open to all club members and would involve uploading to the club website six individual images, a composite of those images and a Statement of Intent. Craig would then judge each members portfolio and provide comments and a grading similar to the club’s digital competition. This competition will standalone from the club’s normal annual print, digital and Image of the Year competitions and will not contribute to the point scores for these competitions.
At this stage it is envisaged that the Portfolio Competition would be run in parallel with our September competitions.
This is a great opportunity for members to develop their photographic skills and pursue a theme or project they have an interest in or passion for. The purpose of this Post is to inform you of this opportunity. More information around the rules for the competition will be provided shortly.
