2022 Set Subject Competitions
It is time to start thinking about Set Subject topics for next year. Usually the topics are put forward by committee members but at our most recent meeting it was suggested that we invite members to submit nominations for a Set Subject along with a suitable criteria that judges can judge against. So, here is your big chance. If in the past you have bemoaned the list of topics and would like an opportunity to put forward a topic (along with a criteria) please send me your suggestions.
Please make sure that your topics are suitable for all members regardless of their grade and circumstances. For example, I don’t think topics around Drone Photography or Underwater Photography will be accepted by the committee.
2022 Set Subject topics along with a suitable criteria should be sent to the following email address by 30th September – belmont16sphotojudging@gmail.com

Image of the Year (IOTY) Competition
Just a reminder to all members that the Image of the Year Competition (IOTY) is fast approaching. It is run in November in lieu of the monthly competitions.
The club made an unsuccessful attempt to restart Print Competitions earlier in the year only to have to suspend them again after Covid restrictions were reimposed.
One of the rules of the IOTY Competition is that an entry in the 2021 IOTY Competition must have already been entered into one of the club monthly competitions that were held in 2021. It is therefore important that if you entered a print image in a print competition in May or June this year and you want to enter that image in the digital IOTY Competitions that you reenter that image in one of the digital competitions that are still available in September or October.
