Report on the monochrome competition night.

David Morlands lecture/workshop on how to produce a good monochrome image brought unexpected results. There were 100 entries for the competition and David,as the judge had a hard days night working out the best.

Sorting out the mediocre ones first he praised and condemned them in equal measure. Pointing out the errors in our photographs,and suggesting ways to improve on them.

Finally producing the creme de la creme..the final 5 who were commended.

A technical term for  "hard luck, you havent won " Then the winners.....

First in the print and image was Ian Whittaker..his print was a photo of a wall covered in Grafti, applause please.

Second and third in print and image was Andrew Linscott..more applause.

Third in print was Tim Nichols,.muted applause.

Congratulations to all three,you swept the board. Hard luck everybody else, now go out and find a grafti wall !!!

The results of the digital images sent to The BerwickGroup are in..

First was none other than Ian Whittaker, with his beautiful image of A Wintry Walk. Who is this man who wins all these accolades, first the whole Monocrome competition, then the Berwick, whats next, A Bafta ? Masham will be getting jealous...

Second was Red Feathers by our Michael Voice, a subtle shot of a lady in a little red.

Third was Dorothy Morland shot of the Big Bear
