Hello Firstname
 
2017 Bristol Salon
The 2017 Bristol Salon was judged last weekend and BPS members did very well. It is quite difficult to be successful in this salon as the acceptance rate this year averaged only about 23%. For the brighter among you, you will see that only roughly between one in five and one in four images submitted were accepted. So for 29 BPS members to have been successful is pretty darn good, not to mention the ten images that gained Honourable Mentions. The full results are shown below, followed by the HC images.
 
Hopefully all of the accepted images will be on the web later today - follow this link
