Home Club News DPIC Fantastic Result!
WCPF Digital Projected Image Competition 2012                  19 February 2012
The Digital Projected Image Competition (DPIC), of the Western Counties Photographic Federation, took place in Exeter last Sunday, 19th February. Five of our members and three guests attended the event.
Twenty images from each of the fifty (yes, 50!), competing Clubs and Societies from across the Federation, were judged by three eminent judges, Rosie Armes FRPS DPAGB EFIAP BPE3*, Colin Harrison FRPS MPAGB MFIAP EFIAP/g FIPF FBPE and John Cartlidge EFIAP BPE3*.
After the ONE THOUSAND images had been judged, we were thrilled to find that Devizes Camera Club was in SECOND place with a total of 223 points! This is our highest position ever - in both this digital competition and in the previous slide competition. The winners were Plymouth with 232 points and Newton Abbot third with 220 points.

As a result of us gaining second place, we have been selected to represent the Federation (along with Plymouth and Newton Abbot) to compete in the NATIONAL event - the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain Inter-Club Projected Image Championship. This will take place at the University of Warwick on the 14th July 2012. It will be an enormous day for the Club and a huge step-up in the level of competition, so we must prepare well. We need the support of ALL members to provide us with their VERY BEST images and we also hope that we will have an excellent turn-out at Warwick to cheer us on. Please diarise this now so that you will be able to join us in Warwick. CR
