Red face In Shock - Managed joint 1st in Camera Club Comp

Was just in contact in with one of our members, without realising he helps run Cheltenham Camera Club - Dedicated to the Photographic Arts Since 1865 , which I am a member of He's just told me my first every entry to a comp came joint 1st with 2 other photographers

I couldn't make it to the competition to see how it was judged, as work had me still in London that night, so the above came as a complete shock. From memory they allowed up to 3 shots, taking the sum of your top 2 to get your final score. I entered the following 2 shots :-



& a less processed version of this shot :-



Having seen previous entries at Cheltenham club the standard is very high, which makes it even more of a shock....but a pleasant one

Thanks to Dave Canon for letting me know

Re: In Shock - Managed joint 1st in Camera Club Comp

I can understand you won, I just can't understand the shock.... these are cracking pictures! The two that shared joint first place must have entered some crackers and it is a good indicator of the rising quality of pictures entered into club competitions. As a judge i have noticed a very distinct rise in both the range and the quality of a lot of the entries i am asked to comment on and give a score to.

Great work Dave.... as always

Rob
