WHAT A YEAR for the MPI 2019 International Image Challenge!!

The 5th annual MPI International Image Challenge was a continued success drawing many MPI members to enter, challenge themselves and get inspired while earning points towards their next level in the MPI Educational Program. The MPI IIC is as well drawing many non-members as they enjoy the educational feedback received from images entered. So much excitement as we sent out this years successful certificates. 

Over the past 5 years, MPI has seen so much growth in many members and non-members while they challenge themselves with the Master Photographers International - International Image Challenge. We have also seen many seasoned professionals get inspired as they compete and enter their amazing work. 

If you are an MPI member that has entered - don't forget, you have earned Certificates that count towards your next level in the MPI Program. 

We will soon be announcing many of our members success this year as a number have now earned their next level or levels...
