Newcomers
We always welcome newcomers at the start of the season or at any time. if you are hesitating why not come along to our next meeting. Let us know in advance and we will be sure to give you a friendly welcome
Monthly competitions
Do come along anyway as there are plenty who just enjoy the social aspects of meeting fellow enthusiasts. However we also run monthly competitions for colour prints, black and white prints, and colour slides. We end the year with competitions for the best prints- and we have an award for the best newcomer!. Prints (mounted) must be handed in one week before the competition. Digital files should be emailed as jpegs sized 1024 (width) x 768 (height) pixels (XGA) by the Sunday night before the competition to wpc.comp@yahoo.co.uk The file naming format for these files is name.title.jpg
