2021/22 Print And Digital Photographer Of The Year

With the announcement of Photoshow results, we also have the annual Print and Digital Photographer Of The Year awards. First, an explanation of how these are calculated.

Points are awarded for performance in each of the In-Season competitions, with 5 pts for coming first (based in the combined score of both images entered), 4pts for second etc. Points are also awarded for performance in Photoshow, again with 5pts for coming first in a category, 4 for second etc. Finally, pts are awarded for scores achieved in the L&CPU Individual competition, with 5 pts for a score of 15, 4pts for a score of 14 etc. Marks are added separately for print and digital competitions to establish the Print and Digital Photographer Of The Year.

Note that this year, there was no Print element to Set Subjects, and there was no L&CPU print competition, which restricted the points available for print competitions.

After all the calculations have been done, the placings were:-

Print Photographer Of The Year

• 1st – Carol Watson (53pts)
• 2nd – Sheila Giles (22pts)
• =3rd – Andy Dickson (15pts)
• =3rd – Ian Mulroy (15pts)

Digital Photographer Of The Year

• 1st – Carol Watson (71pts)
• 2nd – Gordon Watson (61pts)
• 3rd – Kuli Virdee (37pts)

So, congratulations to Carol, for winning both categories.
