Mallow Camera Club held its first League competition of the 2021-2022 season in September. The competition theme was “Natural Waterscapes…From a Puddle to an Ocean,” with each entrant submitting three digital images, all of which had to be taken in 2021.

The competition was judged by Charlie O’Donovan AIPF AFIAP of Cork Camera Group, who did a fantastic job, as usual, in judging the competition and providing constructive and detailed feedback on all the images. Thank you very much Charlie.

The results were announced at our weekly Zoom meeting on 27th September and the winners are as follows:
