EOS SHOWCASE 2018 - IS HERE !
This is the opportunity for all forum members to show your best work alongside that of other members and for these images to be judged by your fellow peers.
You may choose up to 5 images, taken by you using a Canon EOS Camera between January 1st 2018 and December 31st 2018 and be in jpeg format. You will choose into which category they should go from the selection shown below but only 2 are allowed in the same category.
Each image will be posted into one of 9 categories after the competition closing date and you will be invited to vote for your favourites. All votes are anonymous from everyone else- only you and the organiser will know how you have voted -but you are not allowed to vote for your own image. If you enter an image you MUST vote. If you have not entered an image then enjoy the display and then vote -we really welcome your votes too.
EOS Magazine have very generously offered a £50 voucher for the owner of the photo that gets the most votes overall, to be spent in the EOS Shop. Lots of lovely goodies there! In previous years EOS Magazine has also featured the winners but this obviously depends on their page commitments. However, this Showcase is essentially for us to have some fun, and maybe have some modest Bragging Rights.
