Last night, we were pleased to welcome Rob Heslop LRPS from the Forest of Dean to judge the first competition of the season, Comp A ( Set Subject Glass and Open). A huge thank you to Rob for putting in so much time to look at and comment on all 90 images – a big ask and something Rob tackled head on, with precise timing! Also 20 different members picked up awards, including 2 new members, well done to everyone. The results are set out below and shortly all images will be displayed on the Competition Gallery page.
