Mike assessed over 60 prints and digital projected images with circles as a main feature. He commented that the quality of the images was high and that it was tricky to place one image above another, so tiny details make a difference.

Mike’s scores ranged from 14 to 19 and the results were as follows:

Print section:
1st: “Circles” by Andrea Thrussell – 19 points
2nd: “Circles Oil On Water” by Steve Johnstone – 19 points
