W.I.P.I.S. Acceptances & Awards 2010
There were over 15,500 photographs entered in the 2010 Welsh Interntional Projected Images Salon with just over 3241 being accepted, 248 of them from members of W.P.F. clubs.
Congratulations if you were one of the successful entrants as standards were very high and a lot of extremely good photographs narrowly missed out. So if you didn’t get an acceptance, don’t be discouraged. Try again next year.
