Awards 2024 – 25

This season has been notably successful. We have observed a record number of camera club members attending each week, accompanied by outstanding images from all participants. The standard of work is consistently improving year after year.

This achievement may be attributed to the comprehensive program arranged by Barry Smith, which included practical workshops and guest speakers who provided substantial inspiration.

Competitions remain a favourite among club members. This season, nearly all members participated in both internal and external competitions. The positions on the league table have been extremely close throughout the season, with the Photographer of the Year being determined by the final competition.
