Distinctions

Open to all – anyone, whether you are a member of the Bangladesh Photographic Society or not a member may apply. At this level, you need to show evidence of creative ability, a high standard of technical competence, and a complete, expert, comprehensive knowledge of your discipline. Your work should be consistent and also make a statement of a strong personal style. A high standard of presentation is expected. Any Photographer can apply directly for this distinction. Fifteen Photographic Works (Either Black & White or Color or Mixed of Both) should be submitted with the application. All submitted work should have variety in the subject, well composition, quality of the theme, and its control by light. There are no rights or wrongs here, but ensure that if an image has been converted to monochrome, value has been added and you are not just presenting a color image with its color removed. A person, who has been active in the field of Photography at least for five (5) years with good Technical knowledge is eligible to apply. Major selection criteria will be evidence of at least 30 National or 50 International Acceptances. As often as it is mentioned, personal input to pictures is very important. It is an opportunity to show imagination and creativity. It can perhaps best be described as seeing rather than just looking; then making a selection, using the tools and techniques at your disposal, to eliminate distractions in order to let your subject dominate the picture. The resulting image will then be your picture, your interpretation, and not simply a snapshot.

Successful Applicant will receive a Diploma and BPS Badge and after that, he/she can use the title ABPS after his/her name.
