Hi Photography Group members and competitors,

I am delighted to announce the results of the UERSA 'Spring' photo competition and to invite all UERSA members to submit pictures for the next competition, the subject of which will be 'JOY'.

We received 22 amazing 'spring' pictures which were circulated to members of the photography group and other contributors. 10 people voted and the results are as follows:

First place with 19 points:  'St Ives' by Deborah Welland. Prize £30 book token
Second place with 14 points: 'Dartmoor Ponies' by Gina Woodcraft . Prize £20 book token
Third place with 12 points: 'Water Garden 1' by Anne Mayes. Prize £10 book token

Prizes have been kindly provided by UERSA. See below for the winners.

Forthcoming Events

Following discussion at the last committee meeting, it was agreed that I should make a couple of changes to the competition. These are as follows:

- Book tokens will be given to the top 3 photographers, so that no individual receives more than one prize per competition.
- Instead of having 'seasons' as the topic, I will decide on the topic for each competition.

Now I would like to invite all UERSA members to join in the 'JOY' competition.
Please send one or two photos to me (milwardsue@gmail.com) to arrive no later than 31 August. Simple rules as before are:

- Submit one or two 'JOY' photos taken between 1 June and 31 August
- Photos will be judged in our usual way by photo group members and contributors
- The top 3 photographers will receive book tokens

Looking forward to receiving your contributions!

Sue
