WCPF Competitions
The Federation annually holds an Audio-Visual competition using projected images only from 2010.
A Members' exhibition where members from all clubs can individually enter. Accepted images form the Exhibition and are shown at a different venue within the Federation each year. Each year we take the print section of the exhibition to two other venues within the WCPF.
The Kingswood Salver is a competition of five prints of any subject from any club and is judged as a "Panel".
The Knightshayes Trophy (for prints only) is awarded to the photographer with the best suited print on a set subject and is judged by the current President each year.
We also hold an annual Digital Projected Image (DPIC) competition.
There is a Travelling Critique of Federation prints. This will be circulated to member clubs and full details can be found on the Travelling Critique of Federation Prints page. Final rota dates for the next three years are now published.
Photos of the award winning images of recent WCPF competitions are displayed.
Details of National and International Salons and Exhibitions can be accessed here.
