The 55 monochrome images in the competition included examples of nearly all the standards – landscape, portrait, natural history, documentary, urban environment, travel, abstract, record, minimalism, high-key, low-key, action.
Without the intrusive effects of colour members were able to appreciate the structure of many of the images and see the importance of getting the light right.
The majority were left impressed with the way the monochrome challenge had been met.
