Some excellent photographs were entered by clubs in this year’s PSSA Interclub competition. The Junior section particularly was fierce. Edenvale Photographic Club scoring 711 was mere two points ahead of Bethal Fotografieklub (709). The Hermanus Juniors ranked 22nd with a total score of 659. Last year our club did not enter in the junior category, but with the growth in junior members this year we could get our foot in the door.
Each image was scored out of 60. Clubs entered a panel of 15 images in the junior (1-3 Star) and 15 into the senior category. The adjudicating judges were Laetitia Kenny, Evelyn Gibson, Chris Daly and Geoff Feldon.
In the Senior section AFO Photography Club beat Hibiscus Coast Photographic Society by 7 points. AFO was the overall winners (junior and seniors combined) with only 5 points separating them from the runners-up Edenvale Photography Club. Hermanus came 12th in seniors and 18th overall. The Hermanus gallery of images are below followed by the tables with scores.
