Club battle against A1

 

As the result was announced at last nights meeting I’m finally able to write about the club battle.

Around 12 of us made the trip down to Weston Super Mare to visit A1 Camera Club and enjoy their hospitality for the evening. Rich & Andro did their best to eat their own  bodyweight in cakes & biscuits and don’t you believe them if they try to say they didn’t. We were made to feel very welcome and our thanks go to everyone at A1 for making us feel at home.

Now on to the competition. Marks were given out of 20 and the first to be judged was the Digital Projected section.

A1 scored a very respectable 251 points and we managed to just beat them with 259! Out of the 30 DPI’s only two scored the maximum 20 points and those were by Ruth Doyle with “Cooling Off” and Mark Stone with “The Eye at Night”.

In the Print section A1 scored 249 and Reflex 262 which gave us an overall win with 521 points to A1’s 500. And there were three prints that scored the maximum 20 points. From A1 Andrew Thompson with “Still” and Reflex’s Richard Price with “Common Blue” & Adrian Cook with “Kilve Beach”
