This was the sixth and the last of our bi-monthly 2020 member competitions. This month we reverted to our usual ‘Open Competition’. Normally our members are encouraged to submit 2 prints and 2 digital images. However due to the logistical problems of collecting and delivering prints during this ‘Covid-19’ period, this bi-monthly competition was for digital entries only. Our judge for this 6th. Bi-Monthly competition was Ralph Snook (ARPS EFIAP). Ralph is a good friend to SYPC both as a Presenter and a Judge and is always welcome.
Ralph reviewed and commented on 44 digital images and 36 members joined the video call to view the digital entries and to listen Ralph’s feedback, his constructive comments and critique.
Below is a Table of the Top 8 Digital Images and their authors.
