And it certainly was an action-packed day! Some attendees were so keen to get started that they arrived before the Executive members who were still setting up the room 😊
This was the first time we’ve run all three events together in this format, and while the day went very smoothly overall, we recognise that the timings need a little fine-tuning. We’ll be reviewing this carefully when planning for the 2026 competitions.
If you have any suggestions on how we can improve the experience, please do get in touch at competitions@lcpu.org.uk — we’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.
My apologies for the delay in getting the updates online. Although I uploaded the scores to the portal on Saturday evening, family commitments on Sunday and today meant I wasn’t able to write and post the reports until now.
Bring a Print Competition
This fun and informal competition aims to put printed photography firmly back in the spotlight. With a single open section, photographers simply bring their mounted print on the day — no online entry required.
Because of time constraints, the judges are only able to assess up to 150 prints. This year’s total of 114 entries made for a lively and engaging session, with plenty of strong images for the judges to consider.
