In Pursuit of Perfection: The Yorkshire Photographic Union Competition
With hundreds of photographs on display, the Yorkshire Photographic Union’s Annual Exhibition celebrates the artistic ability and technical skill of photographers belonging to clubs across Yorkshire.
What makes the perfect photograph? For the members of the Yorkshire Photographic Union, a federation of 67 photography clubs from across Yorkshire, it could mean many things. For some, it’s an image awarded top marks in the Union’s Annual Exhibition; for others, a photograph that achieves personal ambitions.
The full exhibition, showcasing entries to the Union’s 2020 and 2021 Annual Exhibitions, is now on display at the museum. You can also explore a gallery of selected images on our website.
Free entry; booking essential
