Exhibition Coordinator’s MessageMr Kit Robinson LRPS

Welcome to the 76th Annual Exhibition of Photography organised by Southport Photographic Society.    We look forward to receiving your PDI entries across the four classes.    It is with regret that we are still unable to return to a Print and PDI Exhibition.    As a society dedicated to ‘organising and conducting public exhibitions of photographs, photographic art and apparatus’ we have tried hard to put the necessary arrangements in place for selecting and exhibiting prints but it has not been possible this year.    We will try even harder next year.    I wish you every success with your entries
