OPS v Rotorua Camera Club
​Inter Club Competition 2016
​

The results of the inaugural Annual Inter Club Competition between OPS and Rotorua Camera Club in New Zealand were announced in March 2016. This friendly digital image competition saw eight members from each side assessed by an independent judge. 

I would like to thank Meg Lipscombe from Rotorua for helping me instigate this competition. Also to Julie Hill from Rotorua for organising her members entries and to her daughter, Jess, for producing the winning certificates.

From OPS I would like to thank Malcolm Ming for collating all the images and liaising with the judge and to Richard Waterman for organising the judge.

Lastly our thanks goes to this years judge, Harry Gardiner AWPF from Tenby Camera Club in Wales for his time and considered judgement on the images.
