On Thursday 5th May 2022 Cardiff had the pleasure of hosting Rhiwbina Camera Club in our annual battle (competition). It was great to have the company of so many Rhiwbina members in the club room and share our photographs and stories over cake & tea.
The contest was expertly judged by Dave Bennett who provided thoughtful and constructive feedback as well as adjudication duties. Each club provided 10 print and 10 digital photographs to represent their respective clubs and Dave awarded points out of 20. In the the final analysis it was a victory for Cardiff – well done us. Rhiwbina scored 327 points against Cardiff’s 374.
The competion had many high scoring photographs and the best from the Cardiff members are shown in the gallery below:
