Master Photographer Association Yorkshire Region Annual Print Awards 2018
By Ray Dixon
Recently Julie & I entered our Yorkshire Region Master Photographers Association (MPA) Annual Print Competition 2018.
This is our chance to enter some of the past years images into various categories e.g. Portraiture, Landscape/Travel, Weddings & Commercial. We don't enter into the competition lightly, firstly we are going up against other professional photographers, who've been established for a lot longer than us within the Yorkshire region MPA. Secondly you have to pay for every entry!!!
Round One: consisted of digital entries being entered for judging. The judging was carried out by non other than our MPA President Richard Bradbury, Fellow Master Photographer Association (FMPA). From this we had 12 entries that went through to the second round 🙂
Second Round: We then have to submit the digital images as prints. After another round of judging, then came the awards night...
We had a super night, great to catch up with other regional photographers. Blown away!! That out of all our 12 entries each one received an award, more so two images won their category!!
Thank you to all the MPA regional staff, and Richard Bradbury for giving up his time to judge the competition.
Here are our images:
