It has been a fruitful year for KCPS members entering external non-club salons.

• Twelve out of sixty seven KCPS members have had external acceptances or better this year so far.
• Five members had an image in the PSNZ Four Nations set of 40.
• Six members have an image in NZ Camera, to be published later this year.

The full list of salons and KCPS results to date is:

The annual KCPS Frank Hinchcliff Trophy has this year been won by Roger Smith for his print “Early Start Paekak”. In awarding the win on Monday 22nd July, judge Toya Heatley commented “I can almost smell the steam as it rises from the engine”.

Runner up was “All Eyes on the Sunrise” by Greg Whitfield.

Thanks to all who entered.

KCPS entries to the various 2019 PSNZ competitions did well again this year, with two 4th placings and a 10th.

The first of the 4ths was in the Bledisloe Cup, which is for a set of four diverse images all taken in New Zealand. Photos in this set were by Alison Viskovic, Jo Goudsblom, Neil Gordon, and Barry Culling.

Fourth place was also awarded in the George Chance Cup – a competition for sets of four landscape prints, one print per club member, to be submitted by member clubs of the PSNZ. Images for this set were created by Jacky Challis, Carol Molineux, Hugh Scott, and Greg Whitfield.

Finally we managed to get 10th place in the Wiltshire Memorial Cup. Submissions for this consist of a selection of four digital images, one image per club member, on any subject. These were taken by Susie Whelan, David Yockney, Hugh Scott, and Alison Viskovic.
