We recently held our annual Anglo-Irish Battle, celebrating the sixth year of this friendly three-way photographic competition between ourselves, Catchlight Camera Club from Northern Ireland, and Mid Cheshire Camera Club from England.

Each club submitted 30 images, making a total of 90 photographs for our judge, Suzanne Behan FIPF ARPS, to assess on the night. With such an impressive standard of photography on display, Suzanne certainly had her work cut out for her! We extend our sincere thanks to her for her insightful feedback, constructive comments, and encouragement throughout the evening.

Despite some of our images receiving excellent scores, it wasn't quite our year to claim the top spot. We were delighted to finish in second place, with Mid Cheshire taking third and Catchlight Camera Club emerging as the overall winners. Congratulations to Catchlight on their well-deserved victory, and to Mid Cheshire for their wonderful contribution to the competition.

Above all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable evening, filled with outstanding photography, friendly rivalry, and a shared passion for the art of photography.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the evening such a success. We're already looking forward to next year's battle and another chance to compete for the top spot!

Please enjoy some of our highest scoring images.
