Lunesdale Photographic Competition 2004/5

Photo Competition 2005

I'm afraid that we don't have enough space to put all the pictures entered for the competition here, but I have tried to give a fair cross section of the overall entry. There were some surprises, but given that virtually everyone who saw the entries picked different winners that is perhaps to be expected.

Many thanks to Ray, Eamonn and Michael for their time and efforts in the judging room. Their comments -

"Judges comments; A most excellent display of photographic work, which generated lots of conversation and comments on the subject matter from a photographic and record shot point of view. A credit to all those that contributed an entry in this competition."
