“One Foot On, One Foot Off” by Stuart Bennett was awarded the trophy in the advanced category of Viewfinders of Romsey Camera Club’s Print of the Year competition. The judge, Sue Sibley, said she loved the viewpoint and the detail in the image. Stuart was also awarded second place with “Lepe Lightning” and Seals of Merit for two other images. Third place went to Keith Rose LRPS for “Casualty of the Desert”. Two Seals of Merit were awarded to Margaret Cooper and one to Terry Jamieson.
In the primary category, Peter Finch took first place with “The Lone Tree”. The judge said she loved the sky and the sense of scale. Peter received two Seals of Merit for other images. Julie Cousens took second place with “Northern Gannett Landing on Nest” and Louise Sampson came third with “Cwmorthin, North Wales”.
Some of these images may be included in the club’s annual exhibition which will be part of Romsey Festival in July; the exhibition will run from 8th to 16th July in Romsey Abbey.
