On 28th February we held our first Outlaw of the Year competition. The Theme was ‘Funny Signs’. A big thank you to Malcolm Sales for judging this competition and giving some sound comments and advice on the images. There were 24 images entered to the open section and 23 images to the themed.

In the open section scores of 17 went to Lois Webb for A Hard life by the Canal, Michael Harrison for his excellent black and white shot titled Blues, Jack Worsnop for Lake Pukaki Squall and Elizabeth Bromley for Selfie Stick.
