The Results are in!

BETTER PHOTOGRAPHY RESULTS...

Better Photography Magazine run an annual photographic competition - The Better Photography Photo of the Year.

Last year I entered for the first time. I only entered two photos and received two bronze awards. At the time, I was disappointed that I hadn't done better. But after reading comments from social media websites, I found that there were people who had entered and not achieved enough points for an award.  So I took it on the chin with the realisation that I had actually done quite well.

This year, I entered five images. Three in the "Classic Landscape" category and two in the "Creative Flair" category. It's always daunting entering photographic competitions because you are going to be judged and something that you love and are passionate about, may not be seen in the same light by the judging panel. But I think you need to do it... I need to do it!

The judges this year were Peter Eastway , David Oliver  and Tony Hewitt.

So the results are in!

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the results. The images weren't perfect and there is always room to improve for next year! What is important to me, is the constant move forward - the strive for excellence and to continually improve and exceed expectations - that's the aim! I received three silver and two bronze this year! Hopefully next year, I will be able to secure a gold!!!
