2024 Exhibition for Calendars 2025/6

As we have done since 2010 we had a lovely selection of photographs to be shown at our Open Day on 8th September 2024, in the quest to find a selection for the 2025/6 calendar. Twenty people entered their photographs, many sending several shots. It was thus necessary to draw up a shortlist. These were shown at Open Day with all visitors invited to vote for their three favourites. Cash prizes are awarded to the photographers of the three receiving the most votes.
Winners are:
First Prize - £50 - 28/4/24 - Deer in Bluebells by Slawomir Wnuk
Second Prize 2024 - £20 - 11/4/24 - The Owl & the Pussycat by Andy Hart
Third Prize - £10 - 8/9/23 - Bombus hortorum, Bumblebee by Tony Flecchia
Tony donated his prize to FSW.
Winners and all other shortlisted photographs are shown in the gallery below.
A big thank you to everyone who entered photographs and all those who came to vote.

2023 Exhibition - Winners and other Shortlisted Photographs
A number of these have been chosen for the 2025 Calendar

2022 Exhibition

Sadly, the 2022 Photo Exhibition had to be cancelled. After a bumper entry in 2021, with a total of 26 people sending in their photos, hardly anyone submitted an entry in 2022. By the closing date of 20th August we had just 5 entrants despite advertising on the FSW website, in the FSW Facebook group and on posters. This was not enough to give an interesting selection to choose from so we cancelled the exhibition for the year.
