Tuesday 23rd June Image of the Year Competition

It was a case of quality not quantity.  Initially, I was disappointed that we only received 24 Digital entries and 22 Prints but as our judge Brian Collins commented, the standard was very high.  Picking a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Highly Commended images must be a tougher task than regularly scoring out of 20 but Brian managed to do both and he also provided a detailed critique of all images.

In the digital competition, 6 images were held back and after some deliberation, the winners were chosen:

Digital Image of the Year was Swan Lake by Diana Graham.  Second place went to Family Ties by Di Jackson and third place, London by Light by Christine Alcock with A Touch of Frost by Sarah Pymer Highly Commended.

In the print competition, 8 images were held back and after more deliberation, the winners were chosen:

Print Image of the Year was The Dude by Roy Scrivener.  Second place went to Puffin With Sea Campion by Di Jackson and third place, Brown Hare Galloping by Robin Orrow with Meadow Pipit by Caroline Tillett, and Relay Anchor Leg by Andy Caws Highly Commended.
