2008 Competition Results
Alwyn Ogborn, our competition organiser, writes:
Opening the envelopes I was struck by the consistently high quality and terrific images that come out.
My opinion was borne out by the Oldham Chronicle judges, Vincent Brown and Tony Miller, to whom we are grateful for their expert opinions in choosing winners.
The winning entries are displayed below.
If you didn't win a prize, don't be downhearted - it was a close-run thing. Watch out for the 2010 callendar which will feature 12 shots from the entries for this competition.
Sadly, we did not get a single entry in the junior sections this year.
