This is the third year of this competition organised by Trina & District Camera Club for clubs across the CACC region with 14 clubs participating.

​There will be two independent judges who will pre score the images and then meet to agree the final scores. This year the judges are:

• Maria Leekblade – a highly respected photographer and judge from South of England who is known for her understanding of creative photography – Maria had great feedback on her judging of this competition last year.

• Gordon Brown – A very experienced and knowledgeable judge, with great interest in the genre, he looks for images that create a mood and an atmosphere, images that tell a story and have depth to them. He believes that light is vital and the way it illuminates and makes a subject glow.

​An intimate scape is one in which a small part of a scene has been selected to present an ‘intimate feel’. It might be a smaller part of a wider scape, or it might also be a smaller composition that focuses on shapes, lines, colours, textures or patterns. It is a view of a scene in which any object of focus, is surrounded by its context. The celebration of the beauty of the natural world is encouraged and so the scape can be land, sea, water or city but, whatever the content, it must be an ‘intimate’ scene.

​​The Competition will be on Zoom at 8pm on the evening of Thursday 21st March 2024. All members of all the 14 participating clubs are invited to attend and a link will be sent out nearer the date
