CA Facebook Focus 2018

And the winners are...!

We were delighted to receive over 60 Facebook Focus images fitting our entry criteria over the course of 12 weeks. These were gradually whittled down as we took to Facebook to announce a 'Shot of the Week’ or, in some cases where we have been spoiled for choice, to two or more 'Shots of the Week’. All shortlisted images were then allocated to an online album for the judging panel to select their favourite image in each of the four categories.
