Photograph of the Year 2012

Our ‘Photograph of the Year’ competition is always held towards the end of the season with the subject “open”.  This year, our invited judge was Norman Cary whose task was to select 1st, 2nd and 3rd places from a wide range of images in each of our regular classes, Large Prints, Small Prints, and Projected Digital Images.  We are always pleased to welcome Norman who gives a useful critique of each image which really does help us all to progress our photographic skills.

The formal prize giving will not be until our AGM in May, but the results of this evening’s competition are given below.
