Clarification of rules:

Qualification via Regional Round is Compulsory. Contact your regional representatives for details of date and venue. Submissions will only be accepted if they are compliant with all requirements as outlined in the rules.

New categories:

 

To allow people the opportunity to submit images which fit the Themes required for FIAP biennials, without compromising their choice of image submissions in the “Monochrome print” “Colour Print” & “Projected Image” categories, 3 theme specific categories have been added.

These are:

Coastal Ireland (Colour Prints only)

Irish Environmental Portraiture (Monochrome Prints only)

People (Digital Projected Images only)

 

Example: A Photographer has some very strong images which would fit the “Coastal Ireland” theme, but really wants to submit a set of abstract, urban architecture, and interior/still life images in the 3 open categories.

Under the new system, the photographer can enter those images as desired, but can enter 2 additional images in the “Coastal Ireland” colour print Theme section.

 

Open Categories:

Colour Print:               Max 3 Images

Monochrome Print:     Max 3 images

Projected Image:         Max 3 Images

 

Themed Categories:

Coastal Ireland (Colour Print)                                                            Max 2 Images

Irish Environmental Portraiture (Monochrome Print) Max 2 images

People (Digital Projected Images only)                                  Max 2 Images

 

Theme Rules:

Images will be selected from both Open and Theme sections in the PPI competition for inclusion in the IPF entries for FIAP biennials and other international competitions. so long as they  comply with the themes. Awards for each category will only be made for images submitted into that category.

Eg: An image fitting the “Coastal Ireland” theme in the open colour print section may be selected for inclusion in the IPF entry into the relevant FIAP biennial, and is eligible to receive an award within the “Colour Print” category, but will not be eligible for awards within the “Coastal Ireland” category, as this is a separate competition section.

 Entry & Fees:

It is mandatory to enter at least one of the open categories.

 

1 Category:     Eur10-

2 Categories:   Eur15-

3 Categories:   Eur20-

4 or more:        Eur25-

    Is there any way of entering the competition on-line for the digital section with payment via PayPal. It would make life a whole lot easier than burning CD’s and writing cheques and posting etc etc…! I know qualification is regional but surely something could be formulated to work…? This would also likely encourage more to enter…!
    Thanks
