Terra Australis International Photo Exhibition
Good Morning
This year our club will not be holding a National Exhibition, we have instead taken on the challenge of hosting International Exhibitions. We thank you for supporting our National Exhibitions in the past and invite you to come along with us into the world of International Photography Exhibitions.
Currently open for entries is Terra Australis Photography Exhibition. Entries close 1st June 2024. The link to the competition is here.
In addition David and I are hosting the Outback International Photography Exhibition. This competition is also open and accepting entries. Entries close 11th May 2024. The link to the competition is here.
We look forward to seeing some of your beautiful images in both of the International exhibitions.
Regards
Gail McTaggart, Chair.
