I passed my ARPS the hard way ,mainly due to the fact that i didn`t get a ARPS Mentor .The guide on the RPS web page states the user should show originality and style ---i think i did by using the same lens at the same Aperture f4.5 for each of my shots.
So come the day ,my images went on the wall and came straight down again

To my dismay they were to be judged away from public eye. At the end all the judges went out back to judge mine ,10 minutes later they came out and said that they were in the wrong category .
Natural history should show the whole subject sharp,with detail of surroundings showing,a record shot. However ,due to the quality of the work presented ,all judges believed the panel was of standard and would pass in a "Visual Art" Panel so they awarded me the pass anyway.
If theres a hard way to do something,i`ll find it....Anyway on to my "F "Panel submission....
