15th April
Tenby Camera Club held their 3rd Open Competition on the 15th April. There were 73 entries from 19 photographers . Judging was undertaken by Dennis Russ who found it a difficult task to assess the high standard of work . Nevertheless, he finally worked out that 5 images should score 19 points and 5 score 20 points . In the final places all with 20 points were Liz Wallis in first place with “Brown Hare in the Snow”. In second place Charlie Kidd and “Sparrowhawk eating prey” and in third place Rosie Dungey with “ Pelican grabbing his breakfast” .
This is the final Open event, the photographer who gains the most points scores from all three competitions becomes the overall winner . The trophy awarded is the Ray Hine Memorial Trophy . Ray was one of the founding members of Tenby Camera Club and played an assertive and influential part in making it the camera club it is today . Ray was a respected member and also a great photographer, winning the photographer of the year on many occasions. Sadly passed away now , he is remembered by us all at Tenby and with his good friend Mike Cullis donating the super trophy in Ray’s name.
This year’s recipient of the Trophy is Liz Wallis, with a commendable total score of 223 points out of 240. Paul Richards came second with 216 points and Neil Thomas with 3rd and 214 points .
