The 3rd Set Subject competition of the season on the theme of Film Titles was judged on 17th April by Nik Hilton (EFIAP/b DPAGB BPE5*) from Southport PS. Nik pointed out that the competition was a bit of fun, as it showed off people’s imagination in linking to the brief. Nevertheless, he mainly judged the images on their photographic merit.

The top scoring images are listed below.

The featured image for this competition is Sweet Pea by Margaret Keane which was one of two images to score 20pts on the night.

The 2nd Set Subject competition of the season on the theme of Street Photography was judged on 20th February. The judge for the evening was Steve Hitchen (EPAGB, AFIAP, BPE5*) who is a member of 3 clubs – Atherton & District PS, The Evolve Group and the sRGB Photo Group. This was a print competition and with fewer entries than we have seen recently, it made for a more relaxed evening of judging. Steve made a few comments about some images being ‘well seen’ and also suggested where some distractions could be cloned out, or at least toned down.

The top scoring images are listed below.

The featured image for this competition is Where’s That Bus by Sheila Giles, which scored 20pts and which Steve selected as his favourite image on the night.

The top scoring images are listed below.

The 2nd Open Print competition of the season was judged on 9th January by Nick Berentzen (CPAGB, BPE3) from South Manchester Camera Club. Nick worked his way steadily through the images providing mostly positive comments. He stated that he thought the standards were high, resulting in a large number of images being held back, which then required some adjustment of scores to separate the images.  

The top scoring images are listed below.

The featured image for this competition is Karikaturista Prague By Anne Young, which scored 20pts in the Intermediate Group.

The 1st  Set Subject competition of the season was judged on 21st October by Colin Douglas, who returned just a week after judging the 4-Way Battle. Colin had a difficult task of separating 73 variations of beach scenes, however he managed to run through all the images in the first half, then judged the fairly large number of held back images after the break.

The top scoring images are listed below.

Although Colin held back a number of images, he only awarded one score of 20pts to The Morning Run by Peter Flegg.
