2026 Annual Exhibition
This year's exhibition again took place at Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope Gallery. Our judge was Gerald Kitiyakara from Surrey: friend of the Club but scrupulously unbiased!
The 2026 Exhibition has nearly 200 entries: 107 prints and 88 Projected Digital Images ("PDIs"). This is a record high in modern times, and thought to be ever by the two longest servicng members of the Club.
As is usual we asked Gerald to select a Premier Award and an Imagination Award for each section - Projected Digital Images and Prints - plus he awarded a dozen Highly Commendeds in each.
Here, in PDF files, are all the entries with any recognition accorded:
In addition to the judged exhibits, we showed a small display of photos taken locally by members, either independently for their own interest, or as part of projects where we have collaborated with other local organisations. There was also a very small display of Victorian photos to join in the commemorations for the 200th anniversary of the earliest surviving photo - by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce
The entries with results shown are shown below.

Visitors choice
Each year we invite visitors to vote for their favourite print. This year's favourite - after another tight count - was Face to Face by Massoud Mussavian, shown below.
Nearly two-thirds of the prints received at least one vote as a favourite. This figure is nearly always between about a half and two-thirds of the prints shown in our Exhibitions, which we think shows that people respond strongly to personal memories when looking at photos, not solely some idea of "quality".
