Annual Trophy Presentation
Tuesday 18th February 2014
NWPG Member Won A New Nikon D7100 from Nikon UK
AGM & Presentation of Trophies.
NWPG held their 29th AGM at the Atrium (Annex building) on Tuesday 18th February.
The group membership has increased to 30 in the last year and members have had a very busy time. Activities ranged from speaker presentations, outdoor photoshoot events, practical workshop sessions, competitions and the annual exhibition of members’ work which, in 2013, included a photographic competition open to the public.
The group has 5 trophies, which are presented annually and the competitions were hard fought. Richard Powell won the Bellenie Trophy for the highest overall score in the quarterly competitions, narrowly snatching victory from Bob Whitbread by ½ point.
Ray Woolcock won the Zelley Shield for the best print in the Annual Competition together with the Jolyn Trophy for the picture most admired by the judge. His winning print was entitled ‘Two Minute Silence’
Trevor Fiddy won the trophy for the digital image section in the Annual Competition with his image ‘White Feather’ The entries to the two sections of the Annual Competition comprise of members’ best work over the year.
The Myall Trophy is presented to the best Nature print and was won by Elizabeth Fiddy with her print ‘Goatsbeard Seedhead’
Most excitement came with a special prize of a Nikon camera and flashgun.
North Walsham Photographic Group were invited, as one of three camera clubs, to enter a competition being run by Nikon UK . The theme was landscape and we entered 22 images.
John Riggott, our treasurer, won the competition and is now the proud owner of one of the newest Nikon cameras on the market. We have been very well supported this year by the Nikon group.
NWPG is now moving into its 30th year. Originally starting as North Walsham Camera Club and meeting on Sunday evenings in the bar of the Feathers in North Walsham, it has developed over the years to encompass new technology and still encourage the hobby of photography. We are looking forward to an exciting year.
