I hope you will all agree that Ken Holland did an excellent job this month of judging our work in a kind but helpful and knowledgeable manner. The overall quality of images we're getting is very high, and this is marvellous, but it does make the judges' job harder because they virtually have to "nit-pick" to differentiate between the winners and the "also-rans"! Congratulations to our winners again, and I am particularly pleased to see a couple of new names appearing this month.

It is important that members are very familiar with the process of sizing their digitally projected images properly - we're still getting some submitted that are not correctly sized. We currently require images to be no more than 1024 pixels wide or 768 high. May I ask everyone, please, to check their images before submitting them and to be sure they are within these size limits. I would be happy to demonstrate this on the digital projector or my laptop one evening if anyone wants more help with this. It will take only a minute!
