PLEASE NOTE: As you are aware the MCPF selects and holds prints for use in the PAGB Inter Federation Print Competition from MIDPHOT. If you wish to use these prints in the Print & PDi Championships, please inform me and I will ensure they are available for use on the day.
Participation in the MCPF Print & PDi Championship is on the understanding that all work entered is available for use by the MCPF for both the Print & PDi Inter Federation Championships later in the year.
