Mike Radcliffe was our judge for the first set competition, themed “Frame” or “Framed”.
It generated a range of ideas and Mike commented that it was almost as difficult as judging an open competition, noting that there were some really interesting interpretations of the theme.
With new members entering a competition for the first time, Mike reminded us that any comments were his own subjective opinion and urged everyone to take the comments as intended, and he hoped they were helpful.
His feedback was concise, with tips on improving images where possible and some technical advice. Scores ranged from 13 to 20 points and the results were as follows.
Print section:
1st: “Liverpool Sky Building Frame” by Seamus Whelan – 20 points
2nd: “Looking Up” by Andrea Thrussell – 19 points
3rd: “The Queen’s Head” by Sue Clegg – 18 points
Digital section:
1st: “Liver Building in Window Frames” by Seamus Whelan – 19 points
2nd: “The Clock Tower” by Jason Quayle – 18 points
3rd: “St Oswald’s Church Grasmere” by Angela Skitt – 18 points
Mike ended by praising the high standard of entries and added that they were a credit to the members.
Well done to everyone, especially Seamus for his double success. You can see the placed images on this page.
Our next meeting is on Wednesday 22nd October, when landscape photographer Colin Russell will be our guest speaker.
