The 3rd Open Print competition of the season was judged on 23rd April by Barry Dickinson (MPSA, EFIAP, DPAGB, BPE5*, GPUCR3, L.APS/g) from Poulton PS. There were 54 print images on the night to judge which Barry did with a rather idiosyncratic sense of humour, holding a good number back and commenting in particular on the strength of Landscapes in the competition.
The top scoring images are listed below.
The featured image for this competition is Pass With Care! by Mike Williamson, which was one of the images scoring 20pts, but the one which Barry said was his favourite on the night.
