Judge: Carol McNiven Young FRPS EFIAP BPE4* CPAGB

From Nottingham, Carol is an N&EMPF-approved judge and also an RPS assessor. She is a member of Newark & District and Rolls Royce (Derby) Photographic Societies.

Carol did a fantastic job of judging this competition for us. Her commentary on the images…and she commented on all 75 images… was particularly positive and encouraging, which fitted perfectly with the learning ethos we try to achieve with our monthly League competitions.

Carol also very generously waived her fee and nominated the charity Sightsavers for a donation instead. In addition to all of this, Carol was also an absolute pleasure to deal with. So, thank you very much, Carol.

Entry: 25 entrants; 75 images.
