Don’t miss out; don’t forget to submit your entry. THERE IS STILL TIME!
ALL sections in this event are carried out under the patronage of FIAP, PSA and the RPS. Medals and Awards have been granted by all three patrons as well as our own NCPF awards. We expect that at least 1 in 4 entries will be accepted. A full colour catalogue will be sent to all entrants.
This year’s event has FIVE Sections:-
Monochrome Prints (PPD)
Colour Prints (PPD)
General PDI (CPID)
Nature PDI (ND)
Photo-Travel PDI (PTD)
The calendar is as follows:-

Whilst normally PRINTS should be unmounted, NCPF Entrants can also enter MOUNTED Prints provided that you make arrangements to deliver them to Jane Black. (You can of course deliver unmounted prints directly to Jane)
Normally Prints will not be returned unless return postage is paid in addition to the Entry Fee. However, provided NCPF entrants make their own arrangements to collect them from Jane Black (whether Mounted or Unmounted), then that return postage charge can be avoided..
Combined Club entries delivered to and collected from Jane are also welcome.
The Entry Forms for Prints and Digital Projected Images are SEPARATE and must be completed ON-LINE please.
ON-LINE entry and PayPal are available for the ALL Sections, Prints and Projected Images
Please remember that you DO NOT need to have a PayPal account to pay by PayPal. All you need is a credit card.

We look forward to receiving your entry to this prestigious event.

PAGB E-News 70
Please click on this link to see Issue 70 of e-news from the PAGB which is an obituary special for John Wells - a very busy and popular lecturer whose company a great many amateur photographers have enjoyed.
It is unusual to run such a special but Rod Wheelans received so many comments from John's friends that he thought it appropriate in this case.
We had booked John to lecture at SPS during the 2012-2013 season and I am very saddened that his life was cut short and members did not have the chance to experience the magic of seeing John in action.
