Here are the entries and winners of the Leamington Spa Photographic Society's annual competition
All entries to Leamington Spa Photographic Society’s 2021 Annual Exhibition Competition can now be viewed online.
Held last month via Zoom the hotly contested annual competition attracted a record 192 entries to its ten classes, providing a major challenge for this year’s judge, the highly-regarded Michael Krier from Cheltenham, who during the evening gave a succinct critique and encouragement for every entry.
He said: “There were good images in abundance.”

Tim said: “Our Annual Exhibition Competition is our season’s grand finale with this year’s entries among the best.
"Despite being unable to meet personally we had an excellent season, thanks to Zoom, which included two outstanding speakers from America — and no travel costs.
" We owe our committee a big thank you, especially the IT and programme team who worked tirelessly to make things happen.”
