RPS Digital Imaging
Our Showcase Opportunities
Digital Imaging offers you various opportunities to showcase your work in addition to its publications. They are free and open to all Digital Imaging members.
A regular competition just for fun
Our Monthly Competition for members is held every two months. You can enter two images on any theme every two months. All DI members will then get to vote for their three favourite images whether they have entered the competition or not.
The highest voted images will then feature in DI Online and be publicised here and on our Facebook group feed.
There are few rules, but we encourage you to enter new work rather than raiding the back-catalogue.
The Portfolio is an opportunity to have your work selected to represent the group's wide range of styles and genres - printed magazines are provided for all entrants, and high-quality portfolios for the 30 entrants whose images are selected.
Submissions from 1st January 2026, and the final selections will be announced at our AGM on 22nd February 2026. All DI members can submit up to three prints for consideration, and we can print for our International members.
The 2026 DPI competition is open to all RPS Digital Imaging members, including overseas members, and entry is free. The Raymond Wallace Thompson Trophy will be awarded to the overall winner in September. There will be 15 selected images in each class that will go forward to the final, an online meeting where the winner will be announced on the day.
The two classes are Open Colour (with entry in May) and Open Mono (with entry in July). You can enter up to three images in each, with at least the first two being guaranteed for consideration.
The Selectors will be looking for technical and artistic excellence, and especially new work that has not been previously seen in competitions and exhibitions.
