Round Three 2018-19
Our third internal competition took place on the 29th of November and in keeping with our previous rounds we had to reduce the number of entries allowed per person due to having far too many photographs submitted to make for comfortable judging in one evening. We are also pleased to announce that many of our new members entered too, bringing the total of different entrants to 17.
The event was divided into four separate DPI competitions; Colour, Monochrome, Nature and the theme of Speed.
Our judge for the evening was Sue Hartley CPAGB and she tackled the unenviable job of commenting on our photographs with good humour and offered plenty of tips on how to improve our work, that were welcomed by all. Sue said that picking out the required number of images for the awards was difficult as there were so many contenders, she mentioned the nature section as being of particular high quality.
We’d like to publicly thank Sue for doing an excellent job with such enthusiasm that left everyone in good spirits, even those who didn’t do quite as well as they hoped.
