Results Of The Daytripper Trophy Summer Challenge \u2013 All About Orange
Dunchurch Photographic Society returned to action and commenced their
2022-23 programme with excitement on Wednesday 7 th September 2022. The
season kicked off in the usual venue, that being the Dunchurch Women\u2019s
Institute Hall on the Southam Road.
During the evening, no less than two new champions were crowned as the
traditional Summer Challenge competition got the season underway. This
season, it features a separate Print and a Projected Image competition. Lots of
opportunity for our returning members to showcase their work \u2013 and look to
attract potential new members, of which we welcomed one!
This year, the challenge was centred on the subject of \u2018Orange,\u2019 and what a
challenge this proved to be. However, the Dunchurch Photographic Society
members rose to it and offered an amazingly diverse selection of subjects and
techniques (a strength of our Society) to fulfil the brief.
The summer challenge competition stands quite unique in the programme of
events each year as the winner of the trophy is voted for by its own Society
members. Members vote democratically for their favourite image of the
evening rather than the usual competition format where images are critiqued
by an external judge.
There was a healthy number of prints and projected images submitted by
members as part of the competition this year, and both Print and Projected
Image sections were closely fought in terms of votes.
Summer Challenge Competition Results \u2013
First Place, and winner of the Simon Coates Trophy (Prints) was Mark Ellis, with
his print titled \u2018I Spilled The Beans.\u2019
Many congratulations to Mark \u2013 cracking images and worthy
winners.
Of course, without the entries of our members, there is no competition, and a
big thank you to ALL of our contributing members for sharing and entering<\/p>\n\n\n\n

their images into the opening night competitions. Many of them would have
made worthy winners in their own right.
Welcome back to Dunchurch Photographic Society.
