Inter-Club Competitions
As a member, I would encourage you to attend any of these competitions. You will always be made welcome by the host club and you will get to see the work of other photographers and hear the remarks of judges from outside the area. Over the years BDCC have been very successful in most of these. We have been winners of most of the competitions that we take part in at some occasion in the past 5 years and our results are certainly improving.
If you would like more details of how to attend then do please ask. You may see one of your images being used as everything that is entered into internal club competitions is considered for these inter-club competitions.
