This is an inter-club competition which we host between ourselves and four neighbouring clubs,(SBACC, Yeovil, Wincanton, Shaftesbury and South Petherton). Entries can be colour or mono.
Each club submits five prints and five digital images on which the judge awards points. The club with the most points wins the competition. The winning club chooses the theme for the following year.

In advance of the competition, all the members of SBACC are invited to submit prints and images to an internal selection panel made up of the committee members. They will choose which 10 photos will represent our Club's entry to the competition. Each member can submit up to three images for  consideration.

Members can submit up to three images in total, either DPI, or print or combination on any subject. The member with the best print receives the Iris Overton Cup, which was donated in memory of a former member of our Club who was known for her expertise in black and white photography. The member with the best digital image will receive a separate DPI trophy.

The competitions will be judged by an external WCPF judge.

For the print category the photograph must be black and white.

That is an Image in tones of neutral grey ranging from transparent/white to opaque/black.
For the digital category the photograph can be pure black and white as above or it may be an image that has been colorized with a single hue to simulate a chemical process such as sepia or cyanotype etc.

Each member can submit up to three Digital Projected Images.
Each image will be numbered and shown to the members. After the viewing of the images each member will write down their favourite image number and put their number into a hat. The image with the most votes wins.
A trophy will be awarded to the winner.

Each member can submit up to three entries, mono or colour, on the subject of a theme which will be chosen by the previous year's winner. Digital Entries Only.

The competition will be internally judged by the members.

The winner receives the Shoot A Theme crystal trophy, and will choose the theme of next years competition.

Each member can submit up to three entries.
Entries can be mono or colour.
Entries can be print or DPI.

Any image that shows the subject closer and in greater detail than would normally be seen with the naked eye is counted as a close-up photograph. An image would typically contain an area of view of no more than 18” by 18” and may in fact be much less than this.

The competition will be judged by an external WCPF judge.

Members can enter up to three images in total, either prints or digital, colour or black and white which must have been taken within the past twelve months.

There are three trophies awarded to the winner in each class. It makes no difference whether or not the Club has seen these photos before (so long as they have not won a previous Club competition).

The competition will be judged by an external WCPF judge.
