Dear Fellow PSA Member,

I would like to encourage you and your photographer friends to enter the 2008 PSA Exhibition.

You will find entry forms, including "information and instructions" on our web site -  http://www.psaexhibition.com/

If you would like to see the images accepted in last year's digital sections, go to the web site and in the boxes for "Electronic Imaging", "Nature - Digital & Slides", "Photo Travel - Digital" and
"Photojournalism - Digital."  After the 2008 judging, the 2008 images will replace the 2007 images.

The entry fees for the PSA Exhibition have been greatly reduced this year and PSA members get even lower entry fees.
 
If you support the idea of exhibitions reducing their entry fees, the best way to send that message to the world is to enter all the PSA sections you possibly can.

For our printers, we are encouraging you to submit unmounted images.  Doing so will reduce your postage, reduce your work, and reduce your costs.  Submitting unmounted images will save the exhibition money and make our work easier.  To save you more money, if you would like to
reduce your print entry fees down to $5 for 2 entries, sign the no-return option on the entry form.  Your exercising this option will save you up to 80% on the entry fees.

For our slide workers, we have reduced our entry fees, also.  And if you feel strongly about the world of slide photography, the best way to tell us and to tell other exhibitions is to enter the slide sections.
Everyone understands how the market place has changed as has technology:  We want lots and lots of slide entries to communicate to everyone that "slides are not dead."

The accepted images, to the extent possible, will be shown at the 2008 PSA Conference in Portland, Oregon, between August 31 and September 6.

If you have not registered for the 2008 PSA Conference in Portland yet, click on http://www.psaexhibition.com/2008-psa-1-registration-form.php and sign up today!  After June 30, the registration fee will increase.

If you have already entered, we appreciate your support!

Dear Fellow PSA Member,

The 2008 PSA Exhibition web site is http://www.psaexhibition.com/ - we encourage you to visit it, to enter this year's exhibition, and to see many of the images accepted last year.

The cost of everything in life is going up -- but this year, the entry fees for the PSA Exhibition have been greatly reduced!

As a PSA member, you receive a special discount on the entry fees:  You may enter two sections in Electronic Imaging for $8 (a 60% reduction from 2007) or two digital sections of Nature-Photojournalism-Photo Travel for $5 (a 75% reduction from 2007).  Two digital sections of
Color Projected  Images is just $16  (a  25% reduction from 2007).

Effectively, the nature-photojournalism-photo travel entry fees are $2.50 for 4 images.  This is the kind of pricing we saw in the early 1970s - 35 years ago.

If you support the idea of exhibitions reducing their entry fees, the best way to send that message to the world is to enter all the PSA sections you possibly can.

For our printers, we are encouraging you to submit unmounted images.  Doing so will reduce your postage, reduce your work, and reduce your costs.  Submitting unmounted images will save the exhibition money and make our work easier.  To save you more money, if you would like to

The accepted images, to the extent possible, will be shown at the 2008 PSA Conference in Portland, Oregon, between August 31 and September 6.  A week ago, I spoke to our Conventions Vice President and to our Program Chairman.  They were telling us "this is going to be a really good conference, good programs, good trips, etc."  If you have not registered yet, click on
