Drogheda Photographic Club are Champions!

May 15, 2016 by Niamh Whitty Leave a Comment

Congratulations go to Drogheda Photographic Club who have just been announced as the winners of the 2016 IPF National Club Championship Competition and with the win, the Sean Casey Memorial Trophy returns to his home county for the first time. Catchlight Camera Club took the runner up spot while Dundalk Photographic Society took the third place spot.

For the individual awards, congratulations to John Butler from Drogheda Photographic Club who won best monochrome print and Chris Ducker from Dublin Camera Club who won best colour print.

This year the number of clubs increased to 25 and the exhibition of the panels on our newly commissioned display stands looked amazing.  Congratulations to all photographers who represented their clubs and produced outstanding panels of work.

A big thank you to Competition Co-Ordinator Darragh Sherwin for all his hard work organising the event. Thanks also to all those who assisted him, including members of Mullingar Camera Club.

We also say a sincere thank you to our three judges for their work over the course of the weekend:

    • Anne Sutcliffe FRPS
    • Vanessa Slawson FRPS FBPPA ASWPP ABIPP AFIAP DPAGB
    • Nick Scott FRPS MPAGB APAGB EFIAP

Special thanks to Nick Scott for his fabulous presentation of some of his images titled “Every Picture Has a Story”.

Final thanks to Westmeath County Council for once again allowing us to use their beautiful venue – The Council Buildings.
