    Dee & Stan - Neck & Neck

    Yesterday evening was a PDI competition at camera club, 4 images each with the themes, “Freedom”, “Wet” and 2 x open. We were unable to attend as Dee was just out of hospital following a day surgery but our friend Luke kept us updated by text to Dee’s phone during the evening. This is how it went :

    19.57 - Stans egg got the first 20 of the night. More updates later

    19.59 - Your lego got the second 20 of the night

    These were both entered under “freedom” and my shot was posted in Specialist Subjects a few weeks back here

    I have just started a new thread with Dee’s shot, including some info as to how it was put together here

    20.25 - Stans wet got 17

    20.28 - Your wet also got 17

    Following a coffee break :

    21.13 - Your open got 19

    21.17 - Stans open also got 19

    21.19 - your other open the bike one got a 20

    21.22 - Stan got a 20 on his last pic

    So not only did we end up with identical scores, they were matched all the way through and we jointly won the trophy. Will have to consider staying away from the next competition as well….seem to do better when we are not there

                      Another member of the club sent us a transcript of the judges comments on each shot as well - quite interesting reading
