PRIMARY – Extended & Improved
We have some great news about our PRIMARY phonography exhibition (find out all the details here) that we can now announce:
- The deadline for submissions has now been extended to Sunday 4th March. We have had some incredible submissions but want to set aside more time to make the exhibition something really special.
- The competition is now open to up to 10 submissions from each individual. With the ability to capture many photos on your phone over the next two months we we want you to not feel restricted to just three. The same rules apply about the photos conforming to compositions using the primary colours though. If you have already submitted feel free to send more photos over as and when you please.
- The exhibition will be hosted by Albert Road’s own Bonzo Studio who are also partnering up with us in the creation of the exhibition space. More news on this soon!
- Finally, we will be running a competition as part of the exhibition where the best three photos submitted will win some incredible prizes. We will be announcing the prizes available very soon but got to say, these will be the best prize haul we have ever offered.
- We will be putting together a poster for the exhibition that will be on sale on the opening night. The poster will feature some of the best submissions and all profits from the sales will go to a local charity (details to follow soon). Due to this we need to say that any photos submitted to PRIMARY will involve you giving us permission to use them for commercial purposes, if you do not want your photo used in this way simply let us know via email.
Well, that is it for now! We really hope to drum up as much coverage locally for PRIMARY in the next couple of months so if you could Facebook/Tweet/+1 about the exhibition we would really appreciate it. We would love this exhibition to be a real reflection of the whole population of Portsmouth with everyone taking part and feeling involved.

Martin on November 11th, 2009Whilst i think cycle paths are a good idea i get the impression this is just another example of ‘put enough pressure on someone and they will do what you want.’
Ive a few problems with this but my main one is this is further alienating cyclists from drivers. As you can see from the news website drivers and people who just like to have a whinge are having a big paddy about this.
Dont get me wrong im all for cycle paths as they are great for less confident cyclists and for getting around dangerous sections of road such as the bottom of the motorway, hilsea roundabout and the eastern road. I just feel you cant just slap a bit of white paint on the ground and say its a cycle path. If you want proof go look at the knocked down bridge outside portsmouth university. The supposed “bike lane” there is shit – it goes THROUGH 3 or 4 lamposts and past two blind corners that are very busy with pedestrians.
