On the subject of photography I have been thinking of joining the Royal Photographic Society. I have been contemplating this for a number of years now and I have been putting together a portfolio of my best photographs. I would like to apply for one of the societies awards.
The Royal Photographic Society's Distinctions are recognised as measures of achievement throughout the world.
When you work towards a Distinction you will improve your photographic skills and also know that once you have been successful the quality of your work will be recognised worldwide.
Distinctions are awarded either on the basis of a portfolio of work which may be photographic images or it may be research, or by successful completion of a recognised course.
There are three levels of Distinction and, in addition, the Imaging Scientist Qualifications which are specifically aimed at engineers, scientists and technologists and provide vocational qualifications relevant to a professional career in imaging science.
The three levels of Distinction are:
Licentiateship: The Licentiateship (LRPS) is normally the entry level Distinction and is awarded for a good level of basic skill and competence.
Associateship: The Associateship (ARPS) is awarded for a high standard of technical competence and individual creative ability.
The Fellowship: The Fellowship (FRPS) is awarded for exceptional standards of excellence and distinguished ability.
I now have a collection of great wildlife pictures which should stand in good stead. Although it quite expensive at £91.50 a year, there are many events which as member you can attend, with special interest groups and area groups is seems like a great organisation to join.
