Image Of The Year 2020/21
Our annual Image of the Year competition took place on 22nd April, 2021.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the competition took place on Zoom and was limited to digital images only. Each member could enter up to three images and we had 53 entries in total this year from 21 members. The images were sent in advance to Jim Pascoe, who was to be our judge for the evening.
Jim commented on each image and gave it a mark with some ‘held back’ for scoring at the end. The evening culminated with the judge’s verdict on which images would take the awards. For the fourth year running Andy Hargreaves took the top spot.
The results were as follows:
First
Sliced Gherkin – Andy Hargreaves
Second
Paul as Lawrence of Arabia – Anne Beard
Third
When Will It Stop – Oliver Copeley-Williams
Highly Commended
A Winter’s Morning – Jayne Harris
Breakwater – Andy Hargreaves
