| |
| The
Australian Photographic Society has an Honours system that
recognises the skills, effort and achievement of APS members.
As a member of the International Federation of Photographic
Art (FIAP), APS also administers applications for FIAP’s
honour system, FIAP Distinctions, on behalf of all Australian
applicants, including those that are not APS members.
Both
organisations have honours that are awarded for photographic
excellence and also honours for service to photography.
|
| |
| APS
Honours (Skill) |
| |
| LAPS |
This
Honour is intended to allow the advanced club photographer
of reasonable proficiency to obtain recognition for their
efforts. |
| Licentiate
|
| |
|
|
AAPS |
This
Honour is intended as a goal, offering a substantial challenge
to the accomplished photographer. The standards required
are deliberately kept high but not so high as to preclude
active Australian and overseas photographers from applying. |
| Associate |
| |
| |
| |
|
|
FAPS |
This
Honour is for a high achievement by an exhibitor established
as a successful Exhibitor in International Exhibitions.
There would be little value in a Fellowship bassed on anything
lower than the outstanding international exhibition record
reasonably attainable by our top exhibition photographers. |
| Fellow |
| |
| |
|
|
MAPS
Master |
This
Honour is for the consistently successful international
exhibitor who has built an extensive record of success in
International Exhibitions. It is intended for the top photographers
who continue to exhibit at the highest level after having
established their standing as an international exhibitor
by gaining FAPS. |
| |
|
GMAPS
Grand Master |
This
honour can only be achieved by the Exhibition system. It
is intended for those photographers who have extensively
exhibited their work in many parts of the world of work
to international standards and have continued to present
an even wider range of work. |
| |
|
APSEM
APS Exhibitors Medal |
APSEM

highest level of APS Exhibitor. These Honours are based
on an outstanding record of exhibition achievement in at
least 10 countries. |

| What
is FIAP? |
| |
A
camera club is a group of photographers, local to a particular
area (usually a village, town or sometimes a county). Often
camera clubs are part of a National Federation, which organises
competitions, distinctions etc. across it’s member
clubs. In Australia's case, this is APS (Australian Photographic
Society).
FIAP is a federation of National Federations. It
is a global/international photographic body. Like the local
clubs and national federations, it hosts competitions and
offers distinctions, but unlike the local clubs and national
federations, entrants are now competing and being measured
against photographers from across the world. FIAP stands
for Federation Internationale de l’Arte Photographique. |

photographer, a successful International

rejoicing when they did.

Di
Arthur had a love and passion for photography
in her younger years, then came children
and family and other commitments. Later
in life Di's passion was rekindled when
she joined the Redlands Camera club, she
loved photography and had a great passion
at a later age in life to improve and
grow in it. Di passed away suddenly, but
is dearly remembered by all of the many
friends within the club for her photography
passion, laughter and zest for life.
The woman receiving the Di Arthur award
tonight exemplifies a woman with an active
passion for photography, improvement and
growth to achieve their best. |

Barrie
was an original member of the club, a
born photographer and successful exhibitor.
He was also a talented sail maker and
well known in yachting circles. During
his membership of the club, he helped
those who were new to photography as well
as more experienced members who sought
his help.
He
died from a heart attack at an early
age and this trophy commemorated his
memory and club contributions. The taller
sections of the trophy represent the
sails and the camera, his photography.
The award was established to recognise
the contribution of one member during
the year to club activities. It has
also been used to recognise the commitment
and advancement of skills by members,
particularly those who are newer members
of the club.
