WNE 2022 Introduction

Winchester National Exhibition

Introduction

2022 sees the seventh Winchester National Exhibition – an exhibition of projected digital images. In light of the continuing Covid uncertainties, we decided once again to judge the exhibition remotely.

This process takes longer than our usual face to face judging, so entries to the exhibition will close at midnight after the 3000th entry is received or on the 30th June 2022, whichever comes sooner.

The exhibition is organised by Winchester Photographic Society and is affiliated to British Photographic Exhibitions (BPE), thereby allowing photographers to gain BPE Crowns for any acceptances.

Winchester National Exhibition 2022 is open to any photographer, amateur or professional, who is resident in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, or BFPO addresses.

Classes

There are five classes. You may enter up to three images in each, but no more than ten images in total.

Pictorial Colour

Colour Images on any subject and of any style will be judged on pictorial merit (i.e. the use of the photographic medium as an art form).

The emphasis is on interest, visual impact, composition and technical excellence.

Images may be manipulated in camera or on the computer, but ‘altered reality’ images that have been visibly manipulated should be submitted in the Creative section.

Pictorial Monochrome

Monochrome Images (one colour plus white) on any subject and of any style will be judged on pictorial merit (i.e. the use of the photographic medium as an art form).

The emphasis is on interest, visual impact, composition and technical excellence.

Images may be manipulated in camera or on the computer, but ‘altered reality’ images that have been visibly manipulated should be submitted in the Creative section.

Creative

Any subject, including abstract and ‘altered reality’ images

Scapes

Land, sea or urban views. People or animals may be included but should not form the main subject of the image.

Nature

As defined by the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB) in their 2020 update. (this is a change from previous years)

Fees

£1.50 per image; minimum fee of £6.00

Payment via PayPal at the time of submission. Regretfully we cannot accept cheques for this exhibition.
