Fantastic First PDI Competition
The first PDI Competition of the season was judged by Molly Holman who gave a really detailed and positive critique of all of the images entered. As usual the number of images entered was great (over 90) and the standard was fantastic !! It was great to see our new members entering the competition and hopefully they enjoyed the experience and will continue to enter!!! Sure that Andy Shaw did as he got two placings in group 2 !!
This year we have two new awards of Commended and Highly Commended which means that more members can enjoy their work being appreciated.
