SWPP Conevention London 2010

Hi Guys and Gals

As Tom has already said we were all at the

SWPP convention in London...what a great Buzz that was.

Anyway I was very luck and got 3 merits for my print entry

so here they are.

I took these on a trip to Malta as you night have noticed as I posted

some from that trip already...but these 3 got me my Merits in the International

20 x 16 Print Competition....they are very special .

Hope you like them.....Podge

Tom Lee - Photographic Success

January 2010 saw Europe's largest seminar led photographic convention in London, with over 12500 visitors, 150 international speakers and over 140 trade stands, culminating in a glitzy black tie Awards Dinner and Presentation.
It's with great pride that we can say that Ken, Podge, Joe and myself took a major part in the event with Print Judging, Masterclasses and Superclasses throughout the 6 day event. I even had some success in competition myself with my merited images shown below:

'The Boatyard' - A monochrome image depicting an area of the decaying film set from the motion picture 'Popeye'. A less than successful movie filmed on the island of Malta, starring the American actor Robin Williams.

'The Sword and the Flower' - A mythical depiction emphasising the relationship between beauty and power, often portrayed in the sagas of the Valkyrie.

'Ellena' - A simple but beautiful study of a one month old baby. This was my crowning glory and achieved best in category of Children and Babies. The baby was lit with a single softbox umbrella.
