2D to 3D conversions are only permitted in the February Open competition.

Narrower images can be black-banded to fit the required format.

Images can be of any dimension or shape with black-bands or borders as long as the overall format is complied with.

Award winning images from earlier years cannot be entered in monthly Open and set subject competitions. Award winners from the October Audio Visual competition will NOT be included in the point score competition. However, a separate prize will be awarded for this competition.
