The Judge

The judge for all sections of the exhibition was Barry Green A.R.P.S., E.F.I.A.P./b of Bromsgrove.  Barry is a well known member of the Smethwick Photographic Society and has exhibited his work in British and European Exhibitions.

Entries

Members were restricted in the number of entries they could submit for consideration, the Committee set a limit of 15 prints and  15 projected images per person.  Members were encouraged to enter only their best work.

Judging

Barry examined 251 prints and 178  projected images  before making his selection of prints and projected images which make up this exhibition.

19 members of Dudley Camera Club entered and it is pleasing to note that everyone who entered has work on display.

187 prints and 128 projected images have been accepted for inclusion in the Exhibition.   The number of prints which are displayed is governed by the number which can be hung in the gallery.

  Thanks

The Chairman and Committee offer their thanks to the judge for a job very well done, thanks are also due to the Dudley M.B.C. for the continued invitation to hold an annual exhibition in the Dudley Museum & Art Gallery, also to the Managers and staff of the gallery who welcome the exhibition each year. 

Finally thanks are due to the members who have submitted their work for consideration by the judge, without our members’ support there would be no exhibition for us to enjoy and Dudley would be a less interesting place.
