Gary Jones - "Wildlife"
Gary is a full time Wildlife Photographer and Guide, based in North Wales close by to the beauty and ruggedness of the Welsh Coast and Snowdonia. Since an early age he has had a passion for the outdoors and especially Wildlife, and by trying to photographically record what he saw in the wild, it eventually turned into his profession. He is an accomplished mountaineer and spends a lot of his time in the Mountains but whatever he does and wherever he goes the camera always goes with him. He now travels far and wide to photograph Wildlife, to many of his favourite places both in the UK and overseas. He adores Snowdonia from the rugged mountains down to the beautiful coastline and he has a real passion for Scotland, in particular the Cairngorms and the Western Isles, especially Mull.

Hand-in Internal Competition - Print 1
This is the second competition of the season. It will be an open competition (no predetermined subject) comprising only printed images. The results from his competition count towards the Annual League Table. The RULES for submitting print entries are available on the Information page of the website. Summarised, the Print format requirements for club competitions are: •The visible area of the print must be no less than 35 square inches e.g. 5 x 7 inches or any other size with an area of 35 square inches or greater. •Prints may be monochrome or colour •All prints submitted must be mounted on stiff mount board. •Maximum size of the mount is 16 x 20 inches or 40 x 50 cm. •Membership number, title, classification and ranking should be clearly written on the back of the mount at the bottom left hand corner when viewed with the image face down. This is important as judges expect the image title to be in this position; especially for abstract prints or prints where it is not clear which edge is meant to be the top. Prints with no classification included will be entered in the advanced class. Print entries should be accompanied by a digital submission of the image entered, submitted via the club website on the My Images page. This copy may be used for collating, selection and projection on judging evenings; and also for presentation on the club website after the competition has been judged. Digital copies may also be handed in to the Competitions Secretary on digital media. Digital images or prints submitted to a previous club competition MUST NOT be resubmitted for this competition.
