The third internal club competition of the 2022-23 season took place on Wednesday 30 November.

This was an “open” competition for both prints and digital images.

As usual, the entries covered a wide variety of subjects, approaches, and styles – including landscapes, seascapes, close ups, portraits, travel, architecture, candid/street, wildlife, still life, flowers, derelict boats, abstract, colour, monochrome, and more.  Again, there were no Section Two Prints.

Our independent judge for the competition was Chris Forster FBPE DPAGB MFIAP, a very experienced CACC judge of club and inter-club competitions.

Each entry was marked out of 20.  Marks from this competition count towards the season’s Print and Digital Image Championships (Sections One and Two).

The top performers were as follows:
