TENBY AND DISTRICT CAMERA CLUB
Club night was well attended on Thursday 11th April for the judging of the Audio Visual (AV) entries. Before the evening got underway Roy Packer asked members to stand for a one minute silence in memory of Donna Longhurst who was a past member of the club.
Only six photographers entered this internal competition, Roy Packer was the judge for the evening and although he was judging he asked members at random what they thought of the presentations. The first entry to be shown was ‘Images of Abu Dhabi’ followed by ‘Bodnant Gardens’ and then ‘A Day at the Fairground’, a further three were then shown ‘Botanical Garden of Wales’, ‘A Brief Visit to Nolton Haven’ and finally ‘A Magical Village – Portmeirion’.
Applause was given to all entries with many positive comments being given. Roy Commented on how they had all been put together with good transitions, he also commented that some pictures were not sharp and to many of the same subject being used. Roy concluded saying he hoped more entries would be presented in the 2013-2014 winter programme.
The winning AV presentation was ‘A Magical Village Portmeirion by Tony Charles.
