2026 L&CPU Individual Competition

Posted on 11th May 202611th May 2026 by Gordon

Fading Floral Dance by Carol Watson

The 2026 L&CPU Individual competition was judged on the weekend of 9th/10th May, and once again LSAPS scored some notable successes. Overall there were 843 Prints and 1973 digital images entered from 234 Photographers, slightly up on last year with more prints in particular being entered. LSAPS was represented by 14 photographers.

The scores are decided by three judges each scoring between 2 and 5 points, similar to an Exhibition. In general, a 2 indicates something wrong with an image, 3 is a competent image, but not good enough to be accepted. 4 is good enough to be accepted and 5 means it may be good enough for an award (though awards are only decided at the end in a final review by all three judges). In an exhibition, an image is usually accepted if it scores 12 or above.

All the LSAPS scores can be viewed in the pdf document below. This year LSAPS had 11 members achieving at least one image scoring 12 and above, as shown in the table below. Carol Watson also achieved 5 Awarded images, including an outstanding Gold Medal for Fading Floral Dance in the Colour Print Category, whilst Gordon Watson had 1 Awarded image.

Member	Images Scoring > 12	Awarded Images
Gordon Watson	20	1
Carol Watson	16	5
Anthony Hull	8
Mary Kirkby	6
Mike Williamson	5
Andy Ogilvie	2
Peter Darby	2
Brian Clark	1
Esther Parkinson	1
Janet Parker	1
Peter Cotton	1

In the overall Photographer Of The Year, Gordon Watson achieved a very creditable 2nd place overall, Carol Watson placed 4th, Anthony Hull was 22nd and Mary Kirkby 23rd. The full standings for Print, PDI and Overall Photographer Of The Year are shown in the pdf document below.

The judges for the competitions were Peter Gennard MFIAP EFIAP/d3, Sue O’Connell DPAGB ABPE EFIAP/d3 MPSA and Peter Brisley DPAGB BPE2 EFIAP. Many thanks to Mike Halstead, Jennifer Wolstenholme, Mary Kirkby and Anthony Hull for coming along to show their support for the Club.

In the PDI competition LSAPS finished 5th in the Open section, 10th in the Nature section and a commendable 6th place overall with 280 points, 3 places higher than last year.

2025 Seaside Invitation

Posted on 4th December 20254th December 2025 by Gordon

The annual Seaside Invitation competition against Southport PS was held on Thursday 4th December, hosted by LSAPS. The competition was judged by James Hardy (CPAGB, LRPS, AFIAP, Hon LCPU) from Chorley Photographic Society. There was a good turnout of LSAPS members and also a few Southport members in attendance.

Following the format of last year the competition was split into 15 prints and 25 PDI from each club, with 2 images allowed from each member in Print, but only one per member in PDI. At the end of the print judging, Southport had a significant lead of 17pts, and although LSAPS almost closed the gap by the end of the PDI judging, Southport just held on to win with an overall score of 716pts against LSAPS score of 713pts.

Congratulations to Mike Williamson and Elaine Cook who both had images scoring 20pts in the Print competition.
