Guidance from the Selection Committee 
Please submit high-resolution scans or high-quality photographs to best showcase your work, with each image being at least 1 mb. Good results can be achieved with tablets and mobile phones but ensure there is sufficient light (particularly when the background appears grey in a photograph), that the image is in focus, there are no reflections through glass, and that the angle is correct when work is propped up. 

Poor-quality images will not be accepted.
