We have a change to the scheduled programme next Wednesday when we will be welcoming Tim Pile MPAGB MFIAP EFIAP/p FIPF to Unit13. Tim will be presenting his print talk called Lulu - A Modern Muse. This talk contains images of a single model, but shows the great variety that you can get. It also contains both Tim's FIPF and MFIAP panels.

Below are a few examples of Tim's work, but if you can't wait until next Wednesday why not have a look at his website - timpile.photo |

Creative Competition - Closing Date Reminder
|
Closing date for the Creative Competition is next week, 26 June. For the first time, we have an external judge, Phil Cooling FRPS, and so it will be particularly good to have a big, healthy entry – composites, ICMs, kinky penguins … all welcome. You can now enter up to four images in any permutation of PDIs and prints and the only person who can’t enter is last year’s winner. Don’t forget to upload PDIs of your prints using this link: www.bristolphoto.org.uk/printsupload
The competition rules are shown here:
This is an open competition for up to four images which may be PDIs and/or prints. The Bob Faris Trophy will be awarded to the winner. The winner of the trophy will not be eligible to enter the next year’s competition.
For this competition, a submitted image must have originated as a photographic image or images, produced either in camera or by post processing. All images must be original and may not incorporate elements produced by anyone else. Artwork or computer graphics created by the entrant may be incorporated so long as the original photographic content predominates. Digital skills should be seen as the tools to compose photographic images into one new single image. The final composition will show the photographer’s artistic interpretation.
- This
is an Open competition, with no levels of entry.
- Images
may have been entered into any previous club competition, except for
previous Creative competitions and may be entered into any subsequent
bi-monthly or annual competition, except for subsequent Creative
competitions.
- Each
entrant may submit up to four images. These may be all PDI, all Print or
any combination of the two.
- The
judge will select a Best PDI, a Best Print and award the trophy to one of
these two.
- The
trophy winner will not be eligible to enter the next year’s Creative
competition.

Affinity are again offering their photo editing software Affinity Photo 2 at a knockdown price of £33.99 which is a 50% discount off the usual price. I don't know how long the offer is on for, but if you're in the market for photo editing software and don't want to go down the subscription route of Photoshop, then a one-off payment of £33.99 seems to be a no-brainer!
It's worth noting that one of our top photographers who has a habit of taking the top spots in club competitions does so with images prepared/edited in Affinity.
