Set-Subject Annual Trophies

Competitions at IPS have always been either set-subject or open. Set-subjects were changed annually. From 1993, IPS has progressively introduced several set-subjects that repeat each year and reflect broad genres of photography. Annual trophies have been created where those set-subjects have stood the test of time as being popular with members. Additional set-subject trophies in the works are Monochrome, Macro & Close Up, and Creative.

Shaw Tan Landscape Trophy
