The 162nd Edinburgh International Salon is open for entry. It is one of the most highly regarded photographic exhibitions in the UK and one of the few print-only international salons in the world. Each year, the exhibition attracts thousands of entries from photographers across the globe, drawn by its long history, high standards and distinctive focus on the printed image.
There are no genre restrictions, and entrants may submit up to four colour and four monochrome prints. All images must originate as original captures by light made by the entrant. The rules and all other details can be found here.

Warwick Competition
