The Northern Counties Photographic Federation will be holding its Club Competition judging in Mid-February 2026. We have not received our club invitation yet; it typically arrives the second week of December. The competition entries close Mid-January 2026. Unfortunately, that leaves the Christmas & New Year period to collect, select, organise & submit our club’s 40 entry images.
In light of the tight time frame, we are requesting club members to submit their best Prints & PDI’s as soon as possible, so we can get ahead with the processing of our club entries before we break for the Christmas & New Year holidays.
Please bring prints to our club nights (a print box will be provided) & send PDI’s to the club webmaster (Steve Gray) at webmasters.gpg@gmail.com
