2023 Seaside Invitation
The annual Seaside Invitation competition against Southport PS was held on Thursday 7th December, hosted by LSAPS. The competition was judged by James Hardy (CPAGB, LRPS, AFIAP) who gave a quick but concise judging of each image.
At the end of the first Print round, LSAPS were trailing by 10pts, but unfortunately dropped a further 27pts back in the PDI round ending up with a score of 650pts against Southport’s total of 687pts.
Congratulations in particular to Gordon Watson, who’s Debutante scored 20pts in the Print competition, the best LSPAS score on the night, and to Elaine Cook who’s Tempestuous Sea was the highest scoring PDI image on 19pts.
