2025/26 Photographer Of The Year Standings

For 2025/26, we are trialling a new Photographer of The Year calculation. As previously, results are aggregated from the Season, Photoshow and L&CPU Competitions, however to avoid a single good image from skewing the results, an image can now only count once towards a given Award, with only the best result counting. Each Member’s Score Card shows the contribution of each competition entry towards the Photographer Of The Year, indicating which scores (if any) have been dropped. Full details are available >>here<<.

Also, unlike previous years, it is now possible to show the full table of results for all members, providing full visibility of the process.
