Last night we had NIPA round 3. This was a themed round with the subject “Structure”.
Our judge for the evening was Damien McDonald ARPS from CBPPU CC.
Being a themed round we had a smaller than usual entry, though the standard was extremely high in all sections.
Damien took some time over the mono entry giving some positive constructive comments on all the prints and always analysised whether the print adhered to the theme.
We had 20 colour and 36 PDI’s and Damien managed to comment on them all, suggesting how he thought some images could be improved.
Many thanks Damien for your time and effort.
