Photo challenge first Locked Subject points awarded.

OUR new photo challenge is at its first milestone; the first Locked Subject points are awarded. We also publish the latest League Table (9am 10 Feb).

OUR new photo challenge is at its first milestone; the first Locked Subject points are awarded. We also publish the latest League Table (9am 10 Feb).

Number 22. A reflection is our first locked subject and so drops out of the challenge. So no more entries to number 22 folks! And from that subject, we pick a winner.

Whilst I will tend to lean towards those photos that appear to have been taken specifically for the challenge, in this case, the view of Hull Minster reflected in the office windows is just a great record of a viewpoint that no longer exists! So that scores an additional 2 POINTS to MIKE REDHEAD. His photo will be the first put into the challenge photobook.

Thank you to David Pike, Mike Redhead, Steve Denniss, Dave Hook and Jenny Young for completing our first subject.

“And we’re off!” – Photo challenge first League Table

OUR new photo challenge has started with an early flurry and there are two clear contenders for that £25 top spot.

Dave Hook7£25
Jenny Young52nd
Steve Denniss33rd
Janet Bucknall24th
Mike Bartlett15th

The way you ‘play’ this game will become obvious as it goes on. At the moment some subjects have proven to be easier to complete or find your stock images for.

There are only two more images allowed in the No.22 A Reflection category before that subject is knocked out. Some of the subjects may be more difficult to complete, for example, 10. A bald spot, 16. Chapped lips or 52. Nerds. But the more difficult subjects will have to be tackled too if early leaders in the competition want to maintain their lead. The likelihood is that most competitors will have to take new images to score those valuable points.

Remember: We’ll only accept one photo from each person to each subject. After we’ve received 5 photos to a particular subject, then that subject will be closed for entries.

Put the bunting out – it’s competition time! #photography_challenge_2021

In response to a gift from the Hedon Mayor of a project book 104 things to photograph, a new Photography Challenge 2021 has been launched.

The challenge to be conducted throughout the year will seek to inspire members to make images in response to subjects suggested by the book. The first five people responding to each subject will score a point each just for entering. And one photograph out of the five will be declared ‘winner’ and receive a further 2 points.

At the end of the year, the photographer with the highest points in a League Table will win £25.
