The Royal Photographic Society has teamed up with South West News Service to help members get their work into print - and to earn something from their photography.

SWNS is one of the largest news syndication services in the UK and although it works with regular news images it specialises in 'soft' news and will generate text to support a particualrly distinctive image. Details of the scheme were published in the RPS Journal May 2012 (click here for a PDF).

In brief:

• photographs from members will earn the photographer 50% of the total revenue. The Society will receive 10%.
• Copyright remains with the photographer
• Work will be credited but SWNS cannot guarantee that a publictaion will always carry the credit 

Pictures should be submitted by email to: rps@swns.com

SWNS terms and conditions can be found here: http://swns.com/terms-and-conditions
