In 2002 I was awarded the Licentiateship of the Royal Photographic Society (LRPS). In 2003 I decided to try the international exhibition scene and was pleased to get some acceptances in exhibitionas recognised by the International Federation of Photographic Art (FIAP). In January 2005 I joined the Photographic Society of America (PSA), which also offers recognition for acceptances in international exhibitions.
I have over 1300 acceptances in PSA and FIAP recognised international exhibitions with 112 awards including 19 medals.
I was awarded the AFIAP distinction in 2009 and EFIAP in 2011. Also in 2011 I was awarded the EPSA distinction of the Photographic Society of America. I was very pleased to achieve the Associateship of the Royal Photographic Society in 2009 with a panel of prints showing details of sandstone rocks.
