digital competition 19th september 2016 - unedited
Judge: John Wrigley
Something different for this competition, in that images were not allowed to be post production edited apart from resizing to permit easy projection. So in many ways it was more about the photographers ability to compose the shot and operate the camera properley to get the desired image, rather than change everything later on a PC.
Club members that remembered the pre-digital, 35mm film era, will no doubt recall how acurate we all had to be back then - no screen to see how well the shot was taken and rather than shoot hundreds of images and then pick the best later, more often than not, just one image was recorded of the subject on the 36 frame roll. In those days it was not unheard of for low use photographers to have on the same roll a picture of Christmas at each end, with summer holidays in the middle - i.e. a whole year on one roll of film.
John (Wrigley), a 35mm film man himself, much enjoyed judging our images and as always gave excellent reviews and comments about them - many thanks John.
Below are the winners images, but it is fair to say that every one of the entries was excellent and all photographers should be applauded for their efforts to reproduce the heady days of pre-digital photography.
As this was the club's final DPI competition for the year, the digital trophy winners can be viewed on the 'Scores on the Doors' running totals.
