    • The Judges

    • Introduction

      Once again we have put together a superb panel of very experienced judges from a range of outdoor photography genres. They will be tasked with the challenge of trying to find those images, among a sea of good photos, that have a little something to make them rise to the levels of greatness. It might not be an obvious wow factor, it could just as easily be the sheer subtlety of the composition and light or the vision of the photographer that makes the winning images stand out. 


      All we can say is that your photography will need to be at its very best to impress the judging panel! We are all looking forward to seeing your images.
