W.I.P.I.S. 2009.
A very successful selection weekend was held on February 13th and 14th.
This year there was a new ‘Creative’ section. W.I.P.I.S. Chairman Linda Baldwin looked forward to receiving some innovative images and was not disappointed but reminded entrants that their images must be worked from a true photograph and not be graphic art.
The salon also presents the THE GLAN and MAIR HOWELLS MEMORIAL TROPHY to the Welsh Club which receives the highest total score for twelve nominated images entered in the salon.
Last Ones Standing David Butler MFIAP BPE5 England
The award winning images gallery 2009 will be available soon.
Full details of judges etc. are in the regulations which you can download here.
