PSA Interclub
The second round for PSA Interclub entries closes on Sunday Feb 4th.
Please support your club and enter your new images in the appropriate sections. They do not have to have been entered in the club comps, so any new images you have for upcoming club comps are welcome. If they have been entered in PSA Interclub on our club website, they are ready to go for the club comps and you do not have to recreate the images.
Thanks for your help.

2024 Competition will begin in February
Happy New Year to all our members.
Hopefully by now we are all starting to think about our entries for our first competition of 2024.
Our first competition night for 2024 is Monday 12th February. The set subject is “Effective use of blur”.
Our digital images for this competition need to be uploaded by 11:59 pm on Saturday 27th January and our print entries need to be uploaded by 11:59 pm on Saturday 10th February.
Our judge for February is Nicole Curtis. At this stage I don’t have a lot of information about Nicole. I am hoping that she’ll send me a short BIO before our competition night.
IMPORTANT:
Please note that all printed images entered in our competitions must match the digital image upload. If they are obviously different the print will be disqualified on the night.
POTY entries must be the exact same image entered earlier in the year and must also match the digital uploaded image. Entries will be disqualified if printed image displayed varies from the original entry or the digital image.
Have fun creating your images and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at Ian’s presentation on the 22nd. It sounds great.

Results PSA Interclub Rd 1 Photojournalism
Who would have thought that our best result in Round one came in PJ, traditionally not our strongest genre. We sit in equal second place.
Congratulations to Susan, Marie and David on their well deserved awards.
That wraps up the results for the first round. The Round two comp buttons are now active on the website.
Some eagle eyed readers may notice that Marie’s image scored higher than David’s yet received an HM award and not a Merit award. In the judging process, the three judges complete their scores individually and the top total scores are then considered for the awards. It is then that the judges discuss the images and distribute the awards and that can mean that a lower scored image can be elevated to a higher award.

Changes to 2024 Competition Calendar
We have made some changes to 2 of our set subjects in our monthly competitions for 2024.
The changes are as follows:
Our April competition will no longer have “Leading Lines” as the set subject.
Instead April will now be focusing on “Australia”.
Colour will be – “This is Australia Colour”
Mono will be – “This is Australia Mono”
Set Subject will be “Australian Landscapes”
Guidelines: The image can depict anything that says “Australia” eg. events, people, food, places, buildings, culture and more, as long as the image has a strong Australian theme.
Our “Leading Lines” set subject will be moved to August.
For 2024 we won’t have a “Scapes” set subject.
These changes have been made in order for us to have some “Australian” themed images ready for the Australia Cup, (which is the theme “Australian”), deadline in May.
Therefore, as well as our regular Club competition awards for this month some of these images will be selected for the Australia Cup entry 2024.
The amended “Competition Calendar” for 2024 will shortly be uploaded to our website.
Please make note of these changes.
Thank you for your understanding.
