Pupils from St. Catherine’s School in Years 10 and 11 provided innovative prints from their GCSE Photography course work which contrasted markedly with other images on display.

Roger Towell's Successful ARPS Panel
A small selection of transparencies were on view, and projected images were displayed on a
large monitor. Also on display on another monitor were the award winners and other accepted
images from the First RTPS National Open Digital Exhibition.
Over 60 members each had a panel of prints on display. These panels are usually themed
the choice is left to the individuals concerned. Whilst the majority of images have been
taken and printed digitally, some still choose to use old processes or mix old methods
with new. Amongst these were photographs taken with a pinhole camera and platinum prints
using digital negatives.
Visitors were asked to vote for their favourite panel and the winner was Brian Collins,
LRPS, who will hold the Richmond Trophy for the forthcoming year.
