FIAP Biennial Results

I was thrilled when I received the WPF results from the FIAP Colour Biennial, held in Greece.

We did so well to achieve 2 Medals; a FIAP Silver Medal to Tom Dee from Afan Nedd, with “Cuddles in the Coal Bunker” and a HPS Gold Medal for the Best Journalism to David Hopes from Bridgend & District camera club for “Number 18 Being Chased”. Congratulations to them both.

The WPF report card can be seen here.

Thanks to everyone who sent images, this is very much appreciated.
