[QueensPhoto] Exhibition Visit

[Matthew Dingley]

Hi again,

Sorry about another email but just remembered about an exhibition Oli 
mentioned and thought some of you might be interested in going down to 
see it some time. The details about the related compeition are below and 
information about the event is at 
http://www.cambridgenetwork.co.uk/news/article/default.aspx?objid=43928 
but if there is a good time for everyone to head over to the New Museum 
Site it would be good to do a group trip. How about next Tuesday after 
lunch?

Just incase anyone didn't see it in the JCR Newsletter, I've also copied 
the information about an open exhibition that Phocus is organising with 
entries allowed until Monday 28th April. It would be good to have a 
strong entry from Queens members and hopefully we should have the 
printer sorted out by the end of term for everyone to print their 
entries on. Whilst we're on the subject of competitions the closing date 
for the prestigious Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition 
(http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit-us/whats-on/temporary-exhibitions/wpy-entry/) 
is at the end of March if anyone feels they have any photos suitable to 
enter.

Matt

Stuff about the phocus exhibition:

Entries for the first ever PhoCUS Open Exhibition are warmly invited 
from all members of the university. This is NOT primarily a competition, 
although small prizes will be available to the best entries based upon 
qualified judges' marks, but a chance to display some of your work. 
Everybody who submits work will have it exhibited and we encourage 
anybody interested in photography at any level to submit something. The 
only reason your all of your work won't be exhibited is if we get so 
many entries we run out of space but Great Saint Mary's have been kind 
enough to offer us LOADS of space, so hopefully that won't be a problem. 
If the worst should happen and we can't exhibit all of everybody's 
prints we will do our best to display an equal number of each entrant's 
prints. So don't worry about wasting your money on printing and mounting 
work that won't be displayed! If you are interested in exhibiting some 
photographs download the exhibition guide from our website
http://phocus.org.uk/?=19 and get in touch with Cat Hylton ( 
exhibtions at phocus.org.uk ) if you have any further questions. This is 
your chance to get your work seen!
