Round 2 of the 2024 season of our internal competition took place on Tuesday 3rd September 2024 with an 'Open' theme. The judge was Malcolm Rapier

Five images were held back for a second look in the print category. Ultimately, 19 points were awarded to 'The Highway' by Colin Page & 'High Flyer at the Quay Club' by Rob Wilkinson, with the maximum 20 points awarded to 'Hay Ride' by Chris Murray. Their photos can be seen in the blog (see link below) and the galleries (see link below).
Twenty-six members entered the DPI competition in the second half of the evening.
Due to technical issues, images were not held back but, ultimately, 19 points were awarded to 'Pride and Joy' by Michael Ciancia & '3 Little Pigs' by Chris Murray, with the maximum 20 points being awarded to 'Summer journey' by Gerard Ryan. Again, their photos can be seen in the blog (see link below) and the galleries (see link below).
