Cat Shoots Stars of the West End
If you’re going into any of the shops, eateries and estate agents in Chorleywood be sure to pick up a copy of Chorleywood Magazine’s February 2021 Special Edition. It features images of some of the socially distant events covered by our very own Cat Humphries. In
between lockdowns Cat was able to photograph two West End stars performing a Back Garden Busk, she met The Audacious Mr Astley and had A Slice of Saturday Night at Watford Fringe, and finally ended the year chasing a panto dame and a London Bus around the streets of Chorleywood. Hopefully as lockdown restrictions are lifted, she’ll be able to go back to being the resident photographer for Rickmansworth Players and represent us at the return of Croxley Revels later in the year.
Croxley Green Show
Cat, Ant and Gordon images went down well at the recent Croxley Green Show. Congratulations to each of them!
Dear Exhibitors and Friends of The Croxley Green Show,
PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION 2020
We are delighted to have been able to hold the Photography Competition remotely this year, results and winning photos per class attached.
Thank you to all exhibitors, 17 in total and 67 photos entered.
A big big thank you to our Photography judge who was so thorough in his judging. He wrote copious notes for the exhibitors with praise and advice. I will be sending the exhibitors his comments shortly.
The Mealor Cup goes to Cat Humphries with a cumulative total of 15 points (3 for a First, 2 for a Second, and 1 for a Third). The quality of her photography across all the classes is extraordinary. She achieved 2 Firsts, 4 Seconds, 1 Third and 1 Commended, amazing!
In Second place is Julie Tollit with 6 points
In Joint Second, Steve Rogers and John Jowers with 5 points.
There were 2 Joint Best in Photography medals awarded to Anthony Highet for his Human Relationships photo and to John Jowers for his Group Scene Photo
We aim to post the winning photos on the website soon.
Once the cup and medals are engraved we will drop them off to you. The cup needs to be returned before The Spring Show (we will collect it). The medals are yours to keep.
On behalf of the Show Committee, thank you to all of you for supporting The Show.
With best wishes,
John Jowers (Show Secretary)
