WAINWRIGHT PHOTOGRAPHIC COMPETITION 2003 By the 1st of December we had received 39 entries to the competition for a total of 16 members. 3 images were on slides, 18 were prints and 18 digital. They were all delivered to Derry Brabbs, who had kindly agreed to select 'the best'. Because we had agreed to accept the pictures in any of the three formats, print, slide or digital, they were sent to Derry in their original state plus prints of the slides and digital images. After considerable deliberation and not a little difficulty he selected the three best pictures. We had asked for only 'the best' but Derry was so impressed by the standard of entry that he asked that we might consider awarding three prizes. Eric Robson, our chairman, had generously offered a prize to the winner and faced with Derry's request he has agreed to make a second and third prize available. Derry also made a helpful comment with each entry and these will be sent to the entrants once this announcement is made public. Derry's comments on the winners are shown here. The winners of the first Wainwright photographic competition, in reverse order (is there any other way?) are:
In
first place and this year's winner of the Best Photograph of 2003 is
John Wright with 'Derwentwater and the Coledale Round' of which
Derry says: 'A worthy winner of the competition and one can almost
feel the cold dry air searing the nostrils by just looking at it. Well
composed, well printed and I wish I had been there to take one too'. 2003 Presentation
