In 2009 members of the GEM Camera Club Inc. started the competition to enable amateur photographers within Western Australia to enter a photographic competition. In 2012 the exhibition moved to the new Zig Zag Gallery in Kalamunda and in 2023 the exhibition moved to the Ballroom at the Kalamunda Hotel. The competition has been well supported over the years, and all amateur photographers within WA are encouraged to enter.
Entries are open to all amateur photographers of any age.
MyPhotoClub suffered a significant system failure and is undergoing recovery.
A new version of the system is being implemented as part of the restoration process.
Because of this many features previously enjoyed on the site are not currently available
Rest assured, all previous features will be restored over time. Possibly even better!
This is where the widgets such as the calendar will be displayed.
The judging for the 2024 Spring In The Hills Photographic Competition and Exhibition has now been completed. After the judges scores have been processed, the entrants that have been selected to advance to the print stage of the competition will be notified later this week.
Congratulations to all the entrants that have been selected to advance to the print stage of the exhibition.
The 2024 Spring in the Hills photographic competition & exhibition has now closed for entries. All the entries are currently being reviewed and your entries will be sent to the judging panel in the next couple of days.
The judging will be completed by the 25th of August and entrants will be notified by the 27th of August with regards to images that have been selected to be printed and hung in the exhibition.
The printing of the images selected to be hung in the exhibition will be printed by Midland Camera House on Ilford Smooth Pearl paper. Midland Camera House have kindly offered the opportunity for entrants the opportunity to review their entrants on Midland Camera House’s in house printer calibrated monitor prior to printing so that the entrant can ensure their images are printed to their satisfaction.
There will be a limited timeframe that is available for the entrant to review their image and you the entrant must book a time to review your image and if you are unable to make a suitable time then it is at the discretion of Midland Camera House as whether they have the availability for you to review your image prior to printing. Details to book a time to review your images prior to printing will follow in an email outlining which of your images have been invited to be hung in the exhibition.
We would like to thank our generous sponsors who without their assistance we would not be able to run the exhibition and we would ask that you visit our sponsors page on the Spring In The Hills portal (www.springhils.myphotoclub.com.au).
