Education Proficiency Test Rules

Photography

A total of eight photographs (not slides) to be submitted, as follows:
1. Landscape OR Seascape
2. Portraiture
3. Movement
4. Wildlife
5. Children at Play OR People at Work
6. Shadows and/or Reflections
7. & 8. Own Choice

Of the above, at least one, but no more than three, must be in black and white.

Presentation is part of the test, so each photograph should be suitably and individually mounted (BUT NOT FRAMED). This should be the candidate's own work, i.e. no-one should be paid to do this work, and it is up to the individual to decide whether to cut the mount herself, or buy pre-cut mounts, or ready-made cards. There is no stipulation on size. You should show a mixture of indoor and outdoor locations with as much variety and diversity of subject, mood, lighting, atmosphere, etc as possible.
