LSAPS Photoshow is held over two weeks during August each year and showcases about 600 Print and Digital images produced by our club members. The show is also a competition split across 5 categories – Colour, Mono, Nature, People and Scapes in both the Print and PDI sections. This year the Print competition was judged by Steve Proctor (MPAGB, BPE5*, PPSA) from Chorley Photographic Society and the Digital competition was judged by Diane Seddon (ARPS, AFIAP, CPAGB, BPE3) from Cleethorpes Camera Club in the North East Midlands Federation. Each judge selected their 1st, 2nd and 3rd placed images in each category along with a number of Commended and Highly Commended images. They also selected their overall Best In Show image.
The Awarded Images from Photoshow 2026 are shown below in two Award Galleries. Click on any image in the gallery to launch the slideshow.
