Why Enter Our Competitions?

Forget the idea of COMPETITIVE and think of FUN and ACHIEVING GOALS?

Why should you consider entering the Competitions? When you take up photography you look for ways in which to improve your images. It isn’t enough to simply read magazines and books of instruction, you need a goal to work for and you learn by doing.

Do you belong to a local Camera Club as well as the DPS and enjoy looking at the work presented by other Members? Does it make you ask yourself “I wonder if I can ever reach that standard?”

Here is the goal you are looking for – and it would be FUN. Entering competitions will serve two purposes – it will give you a reason for going out and taking photographs and it will encourage you to improve your images.

Do you feel that your work is not good enough for competition? EVERYONE’S work is good enough – and by aiming to reach ‘winner’s standard you will undoubtedly improve your own photography.

Do you think you have moved beyond the standards of Quarterly Competitions? Lucky you – but PLEASE – think of those of us who have not, and who need the stimulus to improve our work – GIVE US THE BENEFIT OF YOUR EXPERTISE by setting standards to which we can aim for.

PLEASE – Let there be more entries to the Quarterly Competitions – forget your inhibitions (or whatever is holding you back) – have a goal, but, above all HAVE SOME FUN.
