Judge: Phil Chadwick DPAGB AWPF AFIAP BPE5* Hon NWPA
Phil, with wife Jean, is currently a member of the Eryri Photo Group having belonged to a number of other photo clubs over many years. In the 1970s he joined Wigan PS for 4 years, then Crewe CC in the 1980s for about 3 years followed by Cefni CC on moving yet again. When they retired in 2004 they decided to get back into club photography and turn digital!
As they were now living in the Conwy area they joined Conwy CC before joining Llandudno PS. Phil has enjoyed success at club level, never being out of the top three photographers in any club.
As to his type of photography, he enjoys taking people in their environment, such as street photography, with a bit of landscape and animals as well. Since 2010 Phil has enjoyed entering national and international salons gaining his BPE5 and AFIAP distinctions for salon acceptances as well achieving his CPAGB and DPAGB distinctions back to back in 2011 (prints and PDIs) and in 2015 his AWPF with a panel of prints.
