Pick the judge's brains! Submit a question this week
What they are looking for in a submission? What don't they want to see? How can your work stand out?
In the coming weeks I will be highlighting each category within the awards and the corresponding judge, and we are giving you the chance to submit a question to ask one (or all) of this year's judges.
The judges this year are:
Rachell Smith judging People
Howard Kingsnorth judging Places
Karl Taylor judging Things
Just email your questions and who they are for to jemma@aophoto.co.uk, and they may be picked to be answered by the judges!

Don't Forget! Lecturer and Course of the Year Awards
If you are a student of one of our AOP affiliated courses, you can make nominations for lecturer and course of the year. This is a great chance to highlight a particular staff member who has gone above and beyond in the department, and to get your course the recognition it deserves!
Full criteria and how to nominate can be found here under the 'Categories' heading.

As you know, call for entries are open, so keep spreading the word! Does everyone on your course know about the awards yet?
Keep planning, keep shooting, and keep uploading! Show us what you have been working on recently, we love it!
