Our sixth internal league competition of the 2024-25 season took place on Wednesday 14 May.
The set subject, for both prints and projected digital images, was “Tools of the Trade”.
The Programme notes added “Implements, utensils or instruments used in the pursuit of a hobby or trade. The tool(s) must be the important aspect of the picture. Not the product or thing being worked on, not the person and not the environment or occasion, although all of those could appear in the picture.”
All manner of tools were shown in the submitted images. There were paint brushes and pencils, anvils and hammers, sewing machines, sundry carpentry and gardening tools, even ballet shoes, and many more.
Our independent judge for the competition was Alan Taberer from Imagez Camera Club (Weston Turville), a very experienced photographer and CACC judge. He has critiqued and judged at the club many times.
Each entry was marked out of 20. Marks for this competition count towards the season’s Print and Digital Image Championships. (This season there have been no Section Two leagues. This is because so few people chose to put themselves into Section Two. The Committee are considering how to best reorganise the leagues in future.)
The top performers in the competition were as below.
