Photographers with equal points are placed in order with their Points per Image score.
4 more photographers gained places in 2017 than 2016, DJ has improved his hit rate and Jeff Blincow
is very close to DJ in the points per image score
Again it goes show that a Northants bird can win Graham’s shield, it doesn’t necessarily need to be rare
or taken abroad, saying that a Spanking Red Bishop by DT again missed out by one vote the same margin
now for three years.
DJ’s Black headed Gull was a deserved winner striking a wonderful pose in its attempt to catch a fly.
I’m not sure what the outcome was but maybe Dave will let us know.
I Keep banging on about the quality and standard of all the entries and as ever there were some corker’s
this year and you only have to look back over the years on the blog to see some fine imagery.
Sadly some did not gain places but that is not to undermine their Quality.
I’d like to remind you all that the competition is open to all members, I reckon that most of these take pictures
so if you have only one image you like (thats what really matters) why not enter it.
The Competition is a great evening’s entertainment but its running time is getting quite long, Hopefully the committee
will come up with some new idea’s for future running.
Lastly as always Thanks to everyone who helps to make the evening special, they know who they are.
Keep Clicking’ Robin.
