Congratulations to the winners of our Abstract Competition. This was the first time we have held a competition on this theme and there was a lot of interest to see the variety of images members has entered, and the judge’s comments were very well received.
Chester PS recently took part in the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain GB Cup. We scored 107 points and were placed 13th out of 14 in the GB Cup (Limited Eligibility) formerly known as the GB Cup for Small Clubs. This was a nationwide competition, and we were up against some of the very best clubs in the country. Although we may not have scored very highly on this occasion it is, as they say, the taking part that counts and it all helps to raise the profile of our club and hopefully encourages us to take even better photos.
Thanks must go to Sue Champion, Keith Fitzpatrick, Jim Jones, Patricia Keegan, David Melville, Ron Sutton, Jim Walshe and Jan Wilding for the use of their images.

On Thursday, 24th November along with 20 other clubs, we took part in Oldham Camera Club’s Mono PDI Competition in aid of The Christie Cancer Hospital and Dr. Kershaw’s Hospice. Each club submitted 7 images making a total of 147 images in all which were judged by Gordon Jenkins. Below are the final club placings and we tied for 8th place with South Liverpool PS.
Thanks go to Sue Champion, Patricia Keegan, Keith Fitzpatrick, David Melville, Malcolm Peacock, Ray Groome and Jan Wilding whose images we used. Special congratulations must go to Ray Groome whose image ‘Gypsy Girls’ was one of the runners up.
It was a very enjoyable evening and it was lovely to see so many good monochrome images. Even more importantly, the amount raised for The Christie Cancer Hospital and Dr. Kershaw’s Hospice currently stands at £915
