Woking Photographic Society’s season is well under way and a recent PDI (Projected Digital Image) competition showcased a remarkable range of talent (Len Walker writes).

Visiting Judge Tim Morland ARPS DPAGB had the difficult job of awarding certificates for the winning images in the advanced and open classes.

Alan Platt’s magnificently detailed Deathcap Fly brought the image to life. He said: “The fungi looked amazing and the fly was pure fluke, it landed and remained static!”

It was a studio session for Steve Morris when he photographed Cassandra and Bump.

“I was delighted to be asked to do a ‘bump’ shoot with Cassandra and her partner,” Steve said. “The wardrobe was improvised on the day, but we wanted to contrast strong textures with the softness and shape of her lovely bump!”

Sally Howard was on the Zimbabwe side of the Victoria Falls. “There were many dramatic shots to be taken, but it was the vibrancy of colour in Flora and Falls that caught my eye.

“The vivid greens and purples with the definition in the rock made for a super pic.”

Woking Photographic Society president Emma Rowland said: “Once again our photographers demonstrated a wide range of photographic styles, from nature to landscape, with sports, monochrome and abstract and many other genres in between.

“It was gratifying to see so many of our members enter the competition, some for the first time, and to hear how much their enjoyment of photography has been enhanced by being part of such an enthusiastic group.”

Woking Photographic Society meets weekly with a season packed with guest speakers, tutorials, practical evenings, competitions, and a variety of sessions where members can share, discuss, and enjoy photography in a friendly atmosphere.

Photographers of all abilities are warmly welcomed to the club.
