APS Australian Cup pre-selection extended

Closing date extended to Sunday 17th May.  Please enter your best images!

Each year the Australian Photographic Society (APS) conducts an annual interclub competition for camera clubs across Australia. A pre-selection competition will be held within our club to select the twenty entries to go forward.

Our advanced grade members will judge the pre-selection competition.  Last year we came tenth and in the previous year seventh. 

Each member can put forward two entries.  You can nominate any image that was not previously selected for this competition.

Entries now close on Sunday, 17th May.
