International Real Digital Stereoscopic Photography Exhibitions
The number of international real digital stereoscopic photography exhibitions is in minor decline. I would encourage any and all real digital stereoscopic photographers to both embrace and enter those exhibitions that remain. You have to be in it to win it as they say. I have done it, so can you. You never know what you can achieve until you try.
To be conformant with Photographic Society of America (PSA)-recognised exhibition rules, only somewhere between 37% and 43% of the entries in each section are accepted, so don't expect every photograph you enter to get through the judging process.
Almost all of these exhibitions maintain web pages where you can enjoy the photographs entered in the current and previous years
If you want to earn recognition for any real digital stereoscopic photographs accepted into PSA-recognised exhibitions, then you should join the Photographic Society of America (PSA) at the earliest opportunity. Unless you make use of the Stars Buy Back Program, acceptances earned whilst you are not a member are ineligible for retrospective recognition.
Photographic Society of America Exhibitions Overview
In each section of a PSA-recognised exhibition single Gold, Silver and Bronze medals are awarded
