COMPETITION 10 Judge, Colin Lusby
Photo of the Year (P.O.T.Y)
Your best images of the year, or new images.
The Deputy Chairman Dave Neale introduced the judge for the evening. Most members will be aware of Colin as he has judged our competitions many times over the years. Colin did remark how good it was to be invited in the beautiful spring weather, as he is usually invited in the depth of win- ter on cold, frosty evenings.
This is an open competition, and members can submit 4 prints in any com- bination of Colour or Mono.
17 members attended the meeting in anticipation of hearing what Colin had to say about their images and hoping that theirs was to be the winning entry, or held back for further comments.
14 members entered 56 images giving Colin a difficult task in selecting the winning one. He held back 22 to reconsider giving them a further look before awarding them marks, 10 were awarded 18 marks, seven awarded 19 marks and five awarded 20 marks. His final choice as the winner of the competition was Barry Inman’s Alpha Male, declared the Photo of the Year. Barry also had two more 20’s with “Head- ing into Battle” and “Sunset roost”. Two others making the five were Mary Fish “Heron with an itch” and Sue Cross “Wannabe Gangsters”
