The first competition of the Autumn Session is always the judging of the President’s Challenge by the members. This year the theme was “Buildings and Structures”.
The judging took place over two rounds with the members asked to choose their best six images, ranking them from 6 points to 1 point. Following this round of judging, the top six images were identified and these were then judged in a second round, with each member being asked to choose their best three images ranked from 3 points to 1 point. After a very close finish, the image titled “As I Saw It” by Roy Nash was chosen as the winner. The six images making the final are shown below.

Photoshoot at Mellor Cross, Cobden Moor

Yesterday evening’s photoshoot at Mellor Cross, on Cobden Moor, was not the washout that most suspected.
Just a few of us turned out, optimistic that the weather forecast was to be trusted, and the heavy rain, under even heavier dark grey skies, would begin to clear.
The optimism paid off, and we had blazing sunny spells breaking through dramatic cloudy skies. See the photos below, taken last night.
Evening Photoshoot at Mellor

This week’s meeting, on Tuesday 21st May, was a group photoshoot in and around the grounds of St Thomas' church, Mellor. This is an elevated location, with long range views across Greater Manchester and the Cheshire plain towards the Wirral.
We were blessed with sunny skies and good visibility, and as the sun went down, the landscape was a feast of golden colours, perfect for photography, as seen in these images.
