THURSDAY 28th OCTOBER
PDI OPEN COMPETITION judged by SIMON CAPLAN LRPS
The judge for our first Projected Digital Images competition of the season was Bristol based Simon Caplan LRPS and he was more than happy to deliver his results over the internet at our now regular Zoom meeting.
Simon explained his approach to judging saying that he liked an image to have emotional and dramatic impact as well as the ‘WOW’ factor. He wanted quality of subject matter, good use of light and great composition. He concluded his introduction by saying that his judging was subjective and that another judge would more than likely give completely different scores.
The final results were
Division 1
1st place – Steve Varman LRPS – Tyndale Dream
2nd place – Steve Stone – High key pelican
3rd place – Mike Smith – No Nuts
Division 2
1st place – David Gamm – You surprised me
