Alrewas Photo Quiz

Photo Gallery

 

Choose your own subject.

Take photographs that you like to take, or experiment with something new. There are no rules on the subject…it’s up to you!

It’s not a competition, just a chance to show off your creative photographic talent. Be bold!

 

Prepare your photo or image

There must be, either on a label or masking tape, on the back of each photographs, or on the back of each mount:

Your name. Phone number. Title of your photograph Your order of priority - 1, 2, 3, 4 . . for the photograph. This is  in case we receive more photos  than we have room to exhibit.

Write all these details on the label or piece of masking tape before you stick it to the back to avoid damage to your print or mount. 

 

Protect your photograph or image - put them in an envelope or folder.

W

Size of your photo or image

No need to do any exact measuring up.  Borders are included in sizes -  you can leave them on, trim them (they look nicer), or cut them off.

Your printer will very likely print up to A4.

Minimum size is:  5” x 7” (about A5 ‘ish) and the maximum size is 12” x 16”.

You can use photographic glue to stick your photograph to a larger piece of card.  It keeps the photograph flat.  Mount them on card please, not in heavy frames. Daler card comes in lots of colours and can be bought from Hobbycraft.

 

Selling your print?

If you wish to offer your print for sale please let us know. You'll need a price and contact details.
