Bamber Trophy - 2 October
Posted: Fri 20 Sep 2013, 09:28
The Bamber Trophy for monochrome images will be held on 2 October, when the judge will be Glyn Bareham LRPS. The contest is for new work, so entries cannot have been used in previous contests, but images can be used subsequently in the monthly print competition and the exhibition.
At this year's AGM, it was decided that the competition will be for prints only and there will be no DPIs included. This change does not affect the other one-off contests, David Eaves Trophy (nature) and Master Trophy (set theme), when entries will continue to be accepted as prints, DPI or slides.
The competition is conducted as a single class and the trophy will be awarded to the entrant whose three prints receive the highest aggregate score. In the event of a tie, the judge will be asked to re-assess the tying entrants' photographs to select the overall winner.
Monochrome means traditional "Black and White", as well as meaning a single colour, such as Sepia. If there is even a slight hint of an additional colour, the image is not regarded as being monochrome. eg: a "Black and White" image with a single traffic light displaying green. This rule is strictly enforced.
