The August/September Winning photo
The winner was Cyndy Gray with her atmospheric photo taken on the Ile de Brehat on our recent trip to Brittany. The judge chose this picture because of the drama, composition and colours. There is a sense of coming autumn.
The July Winning Photo
The winner this month was Inge Mikkelsen with a lovely photo entitled 'My Scottish Roots' taken on the Group's recent trip to Kingussie in the Cairngorms. The judge loved the composition of the image - the hazy hills in the background, the trees and water in the middle ground and the sharp detail of the pattern of the gnarled roots providing the perfect foreround.
The June Winning Photo
This month's competition was won by Joan Clark, with her photo showing a group of H&G walkers enjoying and taking photos of a poppy field near Ewelme. Joan's winning photo was full of colour and human interest and will now join other monthly winners to be considered for a prize at the end of the year.
