Last night was my Camera Club Awards Evening for the 2011 competitions. I did quite well, receiving about 15 trophies and shields, and about 30 certificates.
Trophies included Photographer of the Year! Not bad for someone who has been shooting for only 2 years up against some well established photographers! :)

Well Chuffed! Although it was a little embarrassing to keep getting the awards, especially as I am the competition Secretary and did all the calculating for the awards! I did get them independently checked, however, so I can't be accused of cheating! :)

I suppose all I can say is "Congratulations".

On the downside for all those who don't live in the UK ;) - there are awards for everything here...
