Message from Chairman

The 44th edition of YPS National Salons, YPS National Salon 2026, has been a very special Salon for all of us at the Youth Photographic Society.
We began this journey with Girish Ananthamurthy as the Salon Chairperson. None of us could have imagined then that we would lose Girish so suddenly. His untimely passing left a void that is difficult to fill, both within YPS and among all those who knew and worked with him.
Under these circumstances, I was asked to step in and take over as Chairperson. I thank the Executive Committee for once again placing its trust in me and handing me the reins of the Salon.
We dedicate the YPS National Salon 2026 to Girish Ananthamurthy, as a mark of our respect and in recognition of his invaluable contribution to YPS. It is particularly meaningful that the Salon he began could be carried forward and completed in his memory.
This edition received an excellent response, with 237 authors submitting 3736 works. We also introduced a fifth section this year, expanding the scope of the Salon and offering photographers another avenue to showcase their work.
Our seven-member jury panel brought their experience and perspective to the judging process and did an excellent job of evaluating a large and diverse body of work. My sincere thanks to each of them for the time and commitment they brought to the Salon.
Taking over a Salon midway came with its own challenges, but I was fortunate to have Venkatesh B S as the Salon Secretary, taking on this responsibility for YPS for the first time. My sincere appreciation also goes to the entire Salon Committee, whose commitment and teamwork ensured that the Salon continued seamlessly despite the circumstances.
It is also heartening to see new people taking on responsibilities. Ganesh Prasad, a first-time reviewer, stepped into the role with enthusiasm and was also taken under Rajaram Sir's wings for media coverage. Ananth Kamath stepped in when needed and took on multiple roles, ranging from reviewing to helping with the creatives. This willingness to step beyond defined responsibilities is what makes a team work.
The continued support of our sponsors, brought in through the efforts of Vikas, forms the backbone of this Salon. Their support enables YPS to maintain the standards and stature that photographers have come to associate with our Salons. We value this association immensely and look forward to their continued support in the years ahead.
For forty-four editions, the YPS National Salon has provided a platform for photographers from across the country to share their work, compete, learn and grow. The continued participation and enthusiasm of the photographic community is what keeps this long tradition alive.
My sincere thanks to every photographer who participated in this edition and placed their trust in YPS. Congratulations to all the award winners and accepted authors.
As we move closer to the end of the 44th edition, there is much to be proud of. But this Salon will always carry a deeper significance for us. It carries the memory of the person who began its journey.
Girish Ananthamurthy, this Salon is for you.

Message from the Salon Secretary
I am pleased to present a comprehensive report on the 44th edition of YPS National Salons, YPS National Salon 2026. This is my first term as a Salon Secretary, and it has been a rewarding experience. I am grateful for the trust placed in me by the YPS Executive Committee.
We are saddened by the untimely demise of Sri. Girish Ananthamurthy, who served as salon chair till 6 Sep 2026.
We introduced a fifth Section, a unique and challenging theme in this edition of the salon, Human Emotions. The images were truly a sight to behold, showcasing emotions and diversity from India and around the world.
We hosted a seven-member jury panel attracting 237 authors and 3736 images from India, with particularly strong participation from YPS members.
Our steadfast Chairperson, Anitha Mysore, along with our President Manju Vikas Sastry, led from the front, ensuring smooth operations. Gopinath Guptha and Koushik ensured timely support. The five reviewers worked tirelessly to maintain our high standards in evaluating each of the 3736 pictures. A special mention must be made of Ganesh Prasad, a first-time reviewer who did an excellent job alongside our other experienced reviewers Ananth Kamat, Kartik Raman, Kakade M S and Prema Kakade. The dedication and attention to detail of our reviewers ensured that the judging was thorough, fair, and consistent. Special thanks to Kakade M S for being the treasurer of the salon.
We continued our practice of including selected observers during jury meetings, which is a step aimed at nurturing the next generation of YPS judges and securing our future judging expertise. The esteemed jury members were cooperative, disciplined with timelines, and brought diverse perspectives. Their discussions enriched the process and strengthened the credibility of our jury selections. The results were published on schedule, reinforcing our commitment to transparency and professionalism.
Our Creatives team excelled in giving the salon its visual identity, while the media and publicity team ensured widespread attention and engagement from photographers and art lovers. The Print exhibition will be held in December, and we look forward to this grand finale, where the artistry and dedication of our participants can be appreciated in person.
In conclusion, the YPS National Salon 2026 was a grand success. My heartfelt thanks go to the YPS Executive Committee, Salon Committee, and our Chairperson for their unwavering support, and to all team members whose contributions made this event possible.

WHAT WE HEARD
ACCOLADES
Youth Photographic Society is happy to share with you the accolades, appreciations and messages from the Salon jury members, participants and others who shared their views with YPS.
From Members of Jury
Thank you once again, YPS Team, for selecting me as a jury member. I truly appreciated the systematic judging procedure, seamless photo numbering, and your team’s constant support. Just one suggestion: if possible, a 10-point marking system instead of 5 would make scoring each image easier and more precise.
YPS is a well-knit Photographic Club with dedicated Members. So, their National Salon was also ‘No exception’ with every step well planned. The Salon Chair Ms. Anitha Mysore and Salon Secretary Mr. BS Venkatesh were continuously in contact with the Jury and responded to their query promptly. The in-house developed Salon Software was quite helpful to quickly review the Images already scored. As Jury I saw some beautiful Images in the Open Color, Open Mono and especially in the Human Emotion section. The Awards were selected score-wise and with mutual discussions among the Jury.
Thank you for inviting me to judge the photo competition. Reviewing the top 50 entries was an absolute pleasure; the standard of work was remarkably high. Collaborating with such cooperative, knowledgeable co-judges made the entire experience seamless and rewarding. Congratulations on organizing such a well-run, inspiring event. Warm regards!
YPS National Salon judging was a fantastic experience. From the mechanics of the software to the care of the organizing team, we were treated rather well. The icing on the cake was the variety and the quality of photos that were in the salon. This is only possible due to the long standing prestige of YPS with the numerous serious photographers in this country. The submissions were of so high quality that some of the ones which missed acceptances here would have definitely gotten awards. It is on a sad note though that I mix this thought with that of missing the smile of Late Shri Girish Ananthamurthy through the activities of this salon. Om Shanthi.
