JANUARY 2022 - Monthly Competition Subject 'Open'

26th JANUARY 2022 - Monthly Competition Subject 'Open'

​Judge: Clive Tanner FRPS, MPAGB, APAGB
Clive is a member of Maidstone Camera Club and you can see his gallery on their website

Although, perhaps, better known by some for his enthusiastic administration of KCPA and PAGB activities, Clive Tanner is an accomplished photographer, primarily of church architecture. He provides several lectures, including an enthralling evening with his print lecture, "Beyond Divine Light", combining his early "career" in photography and his passion for church photography. Having started with a 5x4 view camera, Clive now uses a combination of tilt-shift lenses, HDR and detailed attention to every part of his images. You will seldom have seen a better collection of prints on the subject than his MPAGB entry. He has judged and lectured widely, mainly to Clubs in the South East.

Clive was a very hard task master, and we had some very surprising results at times with a wide range of marks from 11 to 20. Congratulations to Andrei and Christine with their 20-mark images.  The gap at the top of the WJB Swingler League is getting tighter and there is still not a clear-cut winner so there is all to play for.  

​Congratulations to Christine for 1st place
​​1st Christine - 'Dusk Over Elgol Beach'  20 points
2nd Andrei - 'Iris After The Rain' 20 points
3rd Christine - 'Raining On Cromer Pier'  20 points​​
