Barbara, a retired scientist, university lecturer and member of The Entrance Camera Club for 9 years including 4 years as president is an experienced and qualified FCC judge.

🏆Image of the Night was presented to Teena Burnell KyloFoto | Teena for her entry into the Open Category with her image

‘Sir Henry’

Judge Comment- “What an interested animal- rugged and showing intelligence. That one shiny eye captures your attention immediately -“I’m watching you” - followed by the snout and horns. This is a good monochrome image. Being monochrome, the texture in the fur, the horns and the snout and the shine of the eyes are accentuated. The composition is good with only what needs to be in the picture in the frame. The depth of field is appropriate with the subject well separated from the blurred background, while the head and horns are sharp. This has the wow-factor” …. Barbara Blades

🎉🎉Congratulations Teena
