as only attendees can compete , can others send a pic with someone who is attending for display only?

[Alchemy]

[ballaratdragons]

Good idea! Thanks :)

I'll talk to the other organisers and see how we go. :thumbsup:

After Consultation with the other organisers (well, quick conversations) it has been decided to open the Exhibition to anyone wanting to display their work, whether they come to the Camp or not.

Only images by those attending the Camp will be in the competition running. :thumbsup:

Printed my second pic today, Ken. Now to frame it up! :thumbsup:

[ballaratdragons]

Excellent Eric :)

[avandonk]

I will send a few Ken. I will make them large A1 size. If someone could pick them up from my place on their way down, that would be great. You could then keep them to paper the walls.

I am not entering just to show what dedication and madness can produce!

Is that OK with you?

Bert

[ballaratdragons]
