We were extremely fortunate to have Mike Oakes as our ‘judge’ for the new format Annual Digital Image Competition 2021.
There were six categories, and instead of awarding marks, Mike’s remit was to select his favourite six images in each category and to choose one of them as his ‘judge’s choice’. A huge thank you to Mike for the enormous amount of work that he put into making this new format competition such a success and so enjoyable.
There were 30 entries for the ‘Portraiture’ category of the competition.
Mike’s favourite six images, in no particular order, are shown below. His overall favourite in this category was ‘Homeless, Hungry, Happy’ by David Kessel. This image was also the Judge’s overall favourite from all of the categories.
