Hawarden Photographic Society’s Annual General Meeting and Presentation Night took place at the beginning of May.

Geoff Pope was re-elected as the society’s chair, with Ram Patel as vice-chair. Paul Temple continues as secretary.

Presentations were made in both the Beginners and Advanced sections, with certificates awarded to those members who were placed in the top five of each of the six competitions.

A ‘Meritorious Award’ was presented to Dave Jones as a mark of gratitude for the unstinting work that he (as Vice Chair), has undertaken for the Society.

Mike Dyment receives his awards: Beginner Photographer of the Year and winner of the Beginners’ print category, from Geoff Pope.
