With the photographic club season coming to a close, Wilmslow Guild Photographic Society (WGPS) has recently awarded its Photographer of the Year honour for 2010-2011 to Kevin Lee.
During the year, points are given for the two highest scoring images or prints in each of the club's competitions and then totalled up after all the competitions have finished. The competitions are a mixture of prints and digital images, colour and monochrome, with this year's set subjects of Pairs and Contrast, where members can be as creative as they like.
Kevin said "I knew some of my images had done well during the year but I had no idea I would be winning this club accolade. I'm really pleased to receive the award from WGPS and will be busy taking more images over the summer ready for next season's competitions."
WGPS holds its final meeting for the year on 25th May 2011, starting up again on 21st September with an informal kick off competition where members will show the images they have been taking during the summer break.
Wilmslow Guild Photographic Society is for everyone who enjoys taking photographs, whether in digital or traditional film formats, from beginner to expert. New members are always welcome to join - meetings are held on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm at The Guild on Bourne Street. Full details of the 2011-2012 Programme are available on the Society's website.
