Annual Competition 2021

// On 1 December the club held the highlight of its competition season:- The Annual Competition. This year it was judged by Peter Yeo. Covid has meant that the club had to make a number of adjustments to how the competition was managed this year. No prints were accepted, but instead there was an increase in the number of digital entries that could be made. This was a tough competition, but the judge managed to get through over 100 images making comments on every entry which were both detailed and helpful.. Peter announced the winning entries accompanied by how he arrived at his choices. Many thanks to Peter for his valuable and erudite observations, and thank you to everyone who entered images, providing an evening of great photography Full competition results are as follows:-
