In 2009 I gained my AFIAP distinction (Artiste de la Fedération Internationale de l'Art Photographique).
Unlike the RPS distinctions, this is gained by accumulating successes in FIAP recognised international salons, and also submitting a panel of ten of the prints that had counted towards the award. The ten prints I chose can be seen here.
The AFIAP has to be gained before submitting for EFIAP - see below.

In 2011 I followed up on the AFIAP (see above) by gaining my EFIAP distinction (Excellence de la Fedération Internationale de l'Art Photographique).
As with the AFIAP, this is gained by accumulating successes in FIAP recognised international salons, and also submitting a panel of ten of the prints that had counted towards the award. The ten prints I chose can be seen here.
