As wonderful as both awards are, I think that the stats that got him there are even more meritorius. Please correct me if I am wrong but I believe William said that out of 12 entries he received 2 Gold (90-95 score), 1 silver distinction (85-89) and 7 Silver (80-84). 10 scoring prints out of 12 including 2 gold is a fantastic achievement.

My congratulations

Will there be any site down the track where we can see the prize winning images?

Congratulations William!!! :party6:

On a side note - Do newsagents still sell Capture? I haven't seen it in store for about a year!!!!:eek:

the trouble, I'm afraid, is that the images and winning images tend to then be entered into the National Awards, so the photographers dont necessarily want the images seen until after the Nationals (APPAs). Sorry :)
