2018 / 19 Neville Jackson Image of the Year
Last night saw the final competition of the season with the Neville Jackson Image of the Year. This is an externally judged open print competition and had 48 entries. This years judge was John Lewis LRPS. from Daventry who gave some very insightful comments about the images including discussion of the various compositional elements seen in the images from leadin lines, framing, S or C curves, circles, horizons, hands, eyes, closure, foreground elements and whether these can be blurred or sharp, how they provide an impression of depth and how if they’re a strong element they can detract from the main subject, story elements After the main scoring there were some 14 images held back which is a good indication of overall quality of the entries. Following further deliberations this was reduced to 4 “Kelsey” by Daniel Wood “The Scamp” by Ian Waite These were both finally awarded 19 with the remaining 2 images getting 20 “Franz Josef” by Chantal Cooper “Four men in a boat” by Steve Pears With this image being given the overall win Author Image Score Steve Pears Four Men In A Boat 20 Winner Chantal Cooper Franz Josef 20 Debbie Lowe 92214 Leicester City 19 Julie Holbeche-Maund In The Attic 19 Daniel Wood Kelsey 19 Alan Wardropper The Illusionist 19 Ian Waite The Scamp 19 Debbie Lowe Bradgate Weir At Dusk 19 Peter Lawrance Puppet Master 18 Roger Leck Morning On Calpe Beach 18 Steve Bexon Street Artists Meeting 18 Gary Wood Duckpool 18 Ian Waite Garden Beauty 18 Debbie Lowe Summer Sun On The River Lin 18 Graham townsend Excess Baggage 17 Steve...
