Competitions and Challenges
Developing Together
Club Competitions
At Jaguar Photographic Society we run a series of internal photographic competitions throughout the season for both projected digital images (PDI) and printed images.
Competition winners are awarded a trophy and or a certificate at our annual awards evening.
Our competitions aren’t just about winning: they are a supportive way to help develop your photographic skills, no matter your level of experience.
