POTW – Chris Harrison
A really thoughtful expression and a really thoughtful, soft technique by Chris Harrison brings out some wonderfully subtle qualities in this image. A worthy Picture of the Week!
POTW – Lesley Davidson
A great place to visit and a great image from Lesley, who has the prime place with this new Picture of the Week.
POTW – Mel Barnes
A record shot needs care and skill. Here Mel Barnes gives us a splendid example of the genre and it gains the accolade of Picture of the Week.
POTW – Janice Freeman
Janice’s fine Natural History image was the winner of our Natural History section, and very well deserved too. Now it has its second accolade as the Picture of the Week! Janice has had a great photographic year!
POTW – Bobby Loomba
Bobby has another Picture of the Week, with this beautifully stylish portrait of Sammy. Simple and effective!
POTW – John Riley
A riot of colour in this live action shot of the ballet by John Riley, showing what can be achieved with a compact camera.
POTW – Stuart Brides
We don’t see many sports shots in the club, so it’s a special pleasure to award Stuart Brides the Picture of the Week for his Long Distance Driver. We also like the humour inherent in the title!
POTW – Mike Aspinall
Mike’s image gains much of its impact on the gorgeous detail and the fascinating viewpoint. We can savour this one for a week, constantly finding new patterns within the vista, a hive of relentless human activity.
POTW – Joanne Heaton
Photography is about light, but also about emotional content. Joanne’s fine image is one that really lets that emotional content let rip, so well done indeed and a fine and very unusual Picture of the Week!
POTW – Bobby Loomba
Bobby scores this week with this fine portrait. Currently, he is in sunnier climes enjoying life, but hopefully he’ll spot his POTW in due course!
POTW – Mel Barnes
This is a great idea, well done Mel! Every Saturday a new Picture of the Week is chosen. Feel free to send me pictures especially for the purpose, but otherwise the choices are made from Competition and Year Book … Read More
POTW – Mark Dyson
Mark is one of our most active photographers, producing a wide range of subject matter. The key is getting out there in all conditions and this image certainly is a fine example of the rewards to be had. Well … Read More
POTW – Sue Riley
This week POTW features this fine semi-candid image by Sue Riley. A great use of black and white!
