Congratulations to all those members who came last night with wonderful examples of images which would fit into our three categories of Christmas Cards, General Greetings (blank for your own message) and Special Occasion cards. The torrential rain didn't seem to put anyone off and we had plenty of entries to display and then vote for. We must remember to include a category for 'Humorous' next time.
We were pleased to welcome Helen Fisher, from SNAP, a small independent gift and card shop on the Roman Road, east London, who injected a little realism into the evening by talking about her experience of the card market. She promised that she would at least consider buying more photographic images after seeing the wide range we had produced.
Julie Calvert, Greg Lambert, Natalie Robinson, Julia McLean, Susi Luard, Terry Fallis, Brian Groves, Bill Gilliam Jean Jameson and Aaron were amongst those considered to have produced successful cards.
Voting was by means of dots affixed to each card and after the break, we attempted to apply more EAF type criteria to the projected images, giving a score from 5 - 10 and a lively discussion was skilfully chaired by Jools, our competition secretary, who is encouraging more people to enter regional and national competitions.
