The second of the Vale’s competitions was held on 10 November. This was another ‘first’
for the Vale as the submissions were not assessed by an external judge, but by the
members themselves using voting slips. The evening was successful, although a few
minor changes will be made next time to ensure that the evening runs smoothly.
In the Colour Prints category, Follow the lead (Mike Baker), Three boats (Geoff Poole) ,
Gecko (Sally Tarlton) and Enthralled (Tony Tarlton) were all highly commended or
commended by members. In the Mono Prints category, Kelpies in breaking surf (Mike
Davies), Forest clearing (Mike Baker) and Work horses (Nick Craddock) were
commended, and in the Digital category, members chose Ridley (Nick Craddock),
Moonrise (Mike Baker) and Alert (Geoff Poole).
