AFIAP Distinction Awarded
Hi All,
As of today i can add the distinction of AFIAP ( “Artiste” of Federation of International art of Photography) to my name. The fiap distinctions are highly prized amongst the worlds exhibiting photographers are not given out lightly, set criteria has to be met before you can apply to submit your images to the selection committee….You then wait a nervous 3 months till you receive the verdict, so when the envelope arrived today addressed to Jonathan Bowcutt AFIAP my wait was over!
The next distinction on the FIAP ladder to stardom is the EFIAP (E the stands for excellence) this pushes the criteria to the next level with more awards & acceptances required from more salons & countries. Ive already met some of these but have plenty more work to do over the next 2 years before I’m allowed to apply…….But for now i will sit back and enjoy.
Below is a scan of my certificate
Best Wishes Jon.
