Welcome from the President
Message from your President
A very warm welcome to all members.
Last season was one of the most successful years the club has ever had. We won all the inter-club competitions, had great results in GB cup and SPF (both digital and print competitions). That puts our club on the photographic map.
With club members Wanda Mackie and Martin Watt gaining their DPAGB, and Moira Gardner with her FRPS accreditation, individual members are also doing well. Phil Cooke’s world cup team win was outstanding. Gold medals galore we may need a trophy room.
In both club and individual awards, KPS is fast becoming one of Scotland’s top clubs. Our 120th celebrations, Charlie Waite, Then And Now exhibitions and the Scottish Salon have all boosted the profile of KPS. A massive thanks to our dedicated committee with special mention to Cathy Davies for all her efforts last season, great work Phil Cooke and Keith Avery for their work as competition secretaries.
We hope to continue the success of KPS this season, we have a full syllabus catering for all, again thanks to Cathy Davies.
For those not fully into competitions our regular monthly outings are a must with advanced members helping the not so advanced along. It’s all the little things that make one become a good photographer.
I thank Martin Watt for his term as Vice President, and welcome Wanda Mackie into this role.
We really have a great club, dedicated committee and of course you the members. It’s you the members that make the club so let us make this season even better than the last.

Submission for next competition
2nd Internal Competition
Please remember this is the hand in for the second competition of the season. NO Late entries will be accepted. Please ensure you have uploaded you titles to the website and sent your digital files - sized 1600 x 1200 to the internal competition secretary. Also please mount your image on 500 x 400 mount boards as smaller boards tend to damage prints from other members. Good Luck.
