29th April

On the 29th April Tenby Camera Club held the annual Creative Competition . We were joined via zoom by judge Barbie Lindsay, who lives in Ipswich. A very experienced creative photographer, and judge, Barbie carefully advised how to improve an image. There were 42 entries with a high standard and range of creativity.

In first place with full marks was Cheryl Hewitt with a poster style photo illustrating the slogan “Save our Insects” .
A close second was Jan Sullivan with a trio of dogs enjoying a Birthday party, “All eyes on the cake”. In third place was Paul Richards with a textured still life of a vase of flowers ““Past their Best”



After a break Barbie then judged the Mike Rowe Memorial Competition. This competition is in memory of a popular and sadly missed member, the late Mike Rowe. In the audience we welcomed Mike's wife, Carol Rowe. This competition is only open to members who have not won a first, second or third place in any of this year’s competitions. Looking at 16 images, Barbie showed how with some simple adjustments the image could be improved.

Mick Halligan swept the board gaining the trophy & first place with “Harvest Mouse eating Apple”. His images “Lone Tree” and “Three’s Company” were 2nd and 3rd.
