It’s geek time again, so for those of you who just want to look at the pictures stop reading now.
I need just over 30 acceptances with at least 7 new images to apply for my next level of FIAP distinction. Thinking I might get around 3 acceptances per exhibition I entered 10 exhibitions.
However I now have the results back from the first 3 exhibitions and I have 26 acceptances with 2 awards including 11 new images, so it appears that I got my sums slightly wrong, in a very nice way.
Here are all the new acceptances, in no particular order, some of which you will recognise from recent blog posts.
The first is Fredau.

Now the next seven all feature Holly including the two award winners, while the fourth one also included Madame Bink.

I usually only get to enter the colour and monochrome sections, as I don’t shoot nature or photo travel which are other sections that are common. However in one exhibition there was a section called Forest/Woodland, so I entered 4 nudes in a woodland environment and all 4 got accepted including these next two. So I am very pleased that the judges were open-minded in their interpretation of the subject matter :)

A big thank you to all the models, who have created so many great images with me, allowing me to gain all these acceptances and awards.
