PSA Interclub – Colour/Mono

The club entries for Round 3 of the Photographic Society of America Interclub Colour/Mono competition have been selected on the basis of voting by the Advanced Grade members. The successful images were from Alex Hunter, Peter Finch, Peter Stanley, Chris Prior, Trevor Cotterill and Roy Killen. The images will be published in the club newsletter after the results have been obtained from PSA (which will probably be later March).

Due to the changeover to the new version of the club website, entries in the next rounds of the Interclub competitions (Travel, Photojournalism and Nature) are temporarily suspended. You will receive an email when the entries open again.

Please go the MyPhotoClub home page at https://myphotoclub.com.au/ and watch the videos for an introduction. Generally the process of entering a comp is straight forward – upload your image file, give it a title, and select the competition to enter it in.

Online scoring is now available follow the star on the competitions to rate the images in a competition.
