6th November 2023 SPECIAL PRINT PANEL- Set Subject: Patterns and Textures. (By Class)
One set of three images, each mounted on a mount board up to 400mm by 500 mm in size. It may be a triptych, diagonal, or interlocking images, in a triangle, or as your imagination inspires.
The Panel should have ONE title.
The
Panel which meets the overall set subject of "Patterns & Textures” should have
ONE title. Each of the three boards should be labelled on the back with the
panel title, an arrow indicating the top, the image position (e.g., Left,
Centre, Right or Top, Middle, Bottom etc.), and your name. As this is a
print panel competition comprising several boards, three images on one board
will not be accepted.
The subject matter can be interpreted any way by the photographer (use the title to help the judge understand your intent), literally or metaphorically. Note The judge will look for originality, technically good images, and composition. Remember that the judge will be looking for a panel that represents the set subject well and may disqualify or penalise panels they feel do not. Note in a good panel the composition both within each image AND especially across the set of three is important. Remember that the judge will care about the way the three images look together as a set – flow lines, diagonals, symmetry, or other compositional devices should be intentional across the set.
