'Hands Across The Sea' 2018


We won!! by 8 points; the scores were CoL&CPS 254 v CCOH 246. We had the highest scoring image in 3 categories -Dramatic Light; Motion; Urban Life - thanks to Warren Wise, Steve Duncombe and Susi Luard. The highest score in the Weather categories was shared - more thanks to Steve Duncombe. We were also the runners up in 2 categories - Motion; Urban Life - thanks to Keith Cavanagh and Natalie Robinson.

Thanks everyone who submitted images for our selection and to Susi Luard and Hilary Barton for making the final choices for our winning entry.

It is interesting to note that the American judge was much tougher with his marking than our usual Society competition judges.  He awarded 500 marks out of a total possible 800 marks, i.e. an average of 12.5 out of 20 per image.  The winning image in three of the categories scored 17, while the winning image in the fourth category only scored 16.  6 images out of 40 only scored 8.  Please bear this in mind when looking at the image scores!
