Maitland International Salon of Photography

International print Exhibitions, Maitland International is the oldest International in Australia Updated: 29/07/2010
I wish to draw your attention to world wide problem that is now taking place with International print Exhibitions, Maitland International is the oldest International in Australia, first established in 1934 as a print exhibition at the Maitland Show, from that time it developed to become one of the most prominent exhibitions in the world, our exhibition at present is prints and digital projection, but we would like to retain our print section which is on view during the Maitland Show and also at the Maitland City Gallery, this coming year the Digital exhibition will also be on view at the Gallery as well as the showground, it is very obvious that a great number of print Salons world wide have dropped there prints and are now Digital only, this is a concern for us especially when numbers went down slightly last exhibition, especially in Nature, it is our hope that we can keep our print exhibition, and the purpose of this Email is to ask you to forward this Email to all your clubs, Maitland International is Australians exhibition and we need all the support we can get. The history, plus entry form etc. see website www.maitlandsalon.com Yours in Photography Jim Thomson Chairman Maitland International.

August Competition Results

July was a quiet night with few entries, no doubt the cold kept people away. Thanks to Angela Milne for judging the entries.

At the August meeting we had Peta Jolley show a presentation of her photography. Her photos were inspiring and instructive. You can see some of her photos at http://www.photographybypetajolley.com/ . Thanks Peta for an enjoyable evening.
