Tuesday 28 January - Print Competition Round 2


We welcomed judge Wes Gibbon and he had a busy evening assessing 55 print images across the three classes.  After giving detailed comments on each print, he then held several back and gave them another critical once-over.  He finally awarded 8 images top marks of 20/20 and a further 8 were given 19/20.  Thanks to everyone who entered and many congratulations to everyone whose images scored 19 or 20.  You can see these top scoring images again below.  

These 8 scored 20/20.

Cambridge Interclub Digital Competition

What a great start to 2014!  With a total score of 87 out 100, WDPC finished in 11th place (out of 36 clubs) in the 2014 Cambridge CC Interclub Digital Competition.  The competition is in five rounds: Monochrome, People, Landscape, Natural History and Open and clubs enter one image in each round.  The final scores were very close and we were thrilled to bits to do so well at our first attempt.  Three of our images were awarded maximum scores of 20 and were in the running for the Best Image Award.  Di’s Loaves, Fishes and the 500 made it through to the last 14 (out of 180 images) and Robin’s Arctic Terns and Arctic Fox went right through to the final 7 - a fantastic achievement, well done Robin and Di.  Here are all five images which represented our club.
