As part of our recent print exhibition at the Babylon Gallery, we ran a wildlife photo competition for under 16’s. There were 3 age groups, for 5 to 8 year olds, 9 to 12 year olds, and 13 to 16 year olds, and the standard of entries was extremely good.

The winner of the 5-8 years category was Rean Chriswin Rex Suresh. The 9-12 years group was won by Alexander Walker, and the 13-16 year group was won by Jasper Grooms. Their winning images are shown below:

The winners all received a 20″ x 16″ mounted print of their winning image, and an Award Certificate presented by Phil Lenney, EPC Secretary. read more

Our 2022 Print exhibition ended on Sunday 9 October 2022, and was very well received, with over 1100 people visiting us during the two weeks.

Thanks to everyone who helped to make the event such a success by covering the 4-hour shifts each afternoon or by entering their work.

Visitors were all impressed by the very high standard of work, and we sold a number of framed and mounted prints, along with cards and calendars.

this was an excellent way to raise the profile of our club, and to reach out to potential new members. read more

Unfortunately it became necessary to temporarily remove the galleries of images from the “previous years competitions results” pages, as there was an issue with those pages not displaying correctly with the galleries active.

A solution has now been found to this issue by installing some different image gallery software, and the galleries that were recently removed are in the process of being reinstated gradually. Unfortunately this is time-consuming and it may take a few days for the image galleries to reappear on the site. The more recent galleries will be reinstated first. read more
