Each year the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB) holds 2 championships - one for projected images (PDI) & one for prints. The PAGB organises national events and competitions for more than 1100 photographic clubs with over 40,000 members all over the UK and clubs compete in preliminary heats to get to the final. It’s usually held at Warwick University, but of course it was via Zoom this year.

My club, Rolls Royce Derby, got to the final and battled it out with all the other top clubs in the country…. & won!

I believe it is the first time in the clubs 60 year history they have done so, so it’s a great achievement & congratulations go to the photographers whose images the club used.

It was made particularly special for me because one of my high board diving images was awarded top image on the day. The project that led to me getting these images was probably one of the most complicated I’ve ever undertaken, so it’s great to get this reward.

If you are interested in the set-up I used to get the shots here’s a very short video clip showing how I did it.
