Sale Festival Photographic Competition

Sale Festival Committee have decided to run a photographic competition as part of this year's festival celebrations. For some reason, that I have not yet figured out, Mike Bannister and myself are organising the competition on behalf of Sale Festival. The competition is open to all members of the public but we hope that as members of Sale Photographic Society you will all feel obliged to enter. The theme of the competition is "Aspects of Sale" and the focus should be on the richness and splendour of the Borough with particular reference to its people, its architecture and its artistic & recreational culture.

Update to Story in Three Pictures Competition Rules

A potential entrant, anxious to effect economies, has asked whether three prints could be entered on a single mount.

I can see no objection to this, provided that the three are all colour OR all monochrome, and that the order in which they should be viewed is obvious.
