We were delighted to invite Ben Cremin ARPS, President of Swindon Photographic Society to judge our first competition of the 2025/2026 Season. The competition attracted 32 DPI and 22 Print entries enabling Ben  to spend time discussing every image and sharing the detailed research he had done prior to his visit. Whilst the judging saw some familiar names reappearing it was great to see to of our newest members, Bill Lincoln and Roger Armitage pick up awards with their first submissions.

It was also pleasing to see a significant increase in Print entries from last season with the new format of the evening enabling members to spend time reviewing the winning Print entries during the coffee break and hopefully gain inspiration for future print entries.
