Our final internal league competition of the 2023-24 season took place on Wednesday 14 April.

The set subject, for both prints and projected digital images (PDIs), was “Transport”.

The Programme notes added “we are looking for images where the main subject of the image is a form of transport and not the items, person or persons being transported”.

The entries showcased all manner of forms of transport.  As well as planes, trains, and automobiles, there were trucks, sleighs, bicycles, motorcycles, boats, ships, cable cars, dodgems, and even a hovercraft.  And they appeared in all sorts of settings – including the snowy artic, Norwegian fjords, the Alps, temperate woodlands and canals, Iberian waterways, Caribbean and Indian streets, scorching deserts, and many others besides.

Our independent judge for the competition was Alan Taberer from Imagez Camera Club (Weston Turville), an experienced photographer and CACC judge and a regular visitor to the Club.

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

The top performers were as follows:
