GB Cup and GB Cup for Nature

Through the Glacier by Caroline Wright

The Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB) has now released the results for this year’s national GB Cup and GB Cup for Nature competitions. As usual, the judging session is held behind closed doors and results emailed to the competing clubs.

For the GB Cup (Open Projected Image), 66 clubs took part, with scores ranging from 160 for the winners (Smethwick Photographic Society) to 106 for the club in last place. Devizes scored 136 which gave us a ranking of 36th=, so pretty much in the middle of the pack. Another 6 points would have put us in the top 20.

For the GB Cup for Nature (Projected Image), 63 clubs took part, with scores ranging from 154 for the winners (North Norfolk Photographic Society) to 53 for the club in last place. In this one, Devizes scored 136 (nothing if not consistent), giving us a ranking of 38th. Another 8 points in this competition would have put us in the top 20.

Our individual scores for each competition are shown below. Each entry is scored out of 5 by 3 judges, making a maximum score of 15. Note that for each competition, we submitted 24 entries, but only the 12 highest scoring are used to calculate our total score.

Congratulations go to Caroline Wright for a score of 13 for ‘Through The Glacier’, and also to those who scored 12.
