Hello Firstname
Wednesday 14 November
Round 2 of the Projected Image Competition is being judged by our own Graham Reeves FRPS EFIAP. Graham is an experienced international judge and has been a very successful exhibitor. Graham's judging style is one of gentle critisism and constructive advice, so it will be an evening well worth attending.
 
DI Group
Monday 12 November is the next meeting of the DI group and all BPS members are welcome. Please bring along any images (projected or prints) you might like to show fellow members, either just to show everyone what you're up to with your camera or for advice or general discussion.
As usual there will be the added incentive of getting your hands on Ashwin's Chocolate Hobnobs!
 
RPS International Print Exhibition
From the 17th November–5th January, The RPS’s International Print Exhibition will be at the Rook Lane Arts Trust in Frome. The exhibition is open to the public Tuesday – Saturday, 10am – 4pm.
The Royal Photographic Society was founded in 1853 and has staged the International Print Exhibition almost every year since. This year the exhibition will be showcasing a wide range of genres and styles - from artistic to documentary, and from portraiture to natural history.
The exhibition features professional, student and amateur photographers from around the world. The prints have been selected by a panel of well-qualified photographers from different backgrounds. Please click here for further details.

Well done to BPS member, Andrew Wood, who can now proudly stick the letters LRPS after his name following a sucessful adjudication this week.
 
If you want to blow your own trumpet or, dare I say such a thing, blow someone else's trumpet for them, then this is the place to do it. Please let me know and I'll include it in the next issue.
