“Entrants should be careful to read the rules because occasionally photographs had to be disqualified...some of these pictures would have undoubtedly been accepted...”
“The award winners were of a very high standard...In both the Mono and the Colour it was pleasing to see some excellent sports images.”
“The organization (of the Salon) was excellent...very professional… and the Frome team worked extremely well together. Instructions to the judges were very clear…”
“Judges were made to feel very welcome and were well catered for...Rosy provided excellent provisions”
