Hebden Bridge Camera Club Exhibition - The Winners
Hebden Bridge Camera Club’s annual exhibition returned to the Town Hall for a week at the end of August, with 56 prints on display from local photographers. Mayor, Cllr Rob Freeth opened the exhibition, and over 800 visitors came to see the exhibition, and almost 600 votes were cast.
Visitors were asked to vote for their favourite three images in order of preference, and every print on display received some votes. Every print was also voted first place by at least one visitor.
There was no set theme, and many people commented on how difficult it was to choose, with so many good and varied images – which included local views, scenes from around the world, buildings, still-life, people, animals, birds, plus more abstract images. After all the votes were counted, these were the winning photos:
First Prize: Wren - Barbara Lansdell
Second Prize: What about me? - Judith Baron
Third Prize: In the Cold Midwinter - Bill Pilkington
The club would like to thank all who attended for helping make the exhibition successful, the winning photos are on theire website along with information on how to join.
The club usually meets at The Masonic Hall, Hangingroyd Lane, every Wednesday evening at 7.45pm, from the beginning of September to the end of April.
