ADS National Show photography results

Here, a little bit tardy, are the show results for photography at Murphys.

The show schedule called for seven photography classes:
P1 Portraits of daffodils: one to three blooms of the same cultivar or species P2 Daffodils in the landscape or garden P3 Daffodils in their native or natural habitat P4 Daddodils and people P5 Daffodils and animals P6 A still life incorporating daffodils P7 Abstract or special effects incorporating daffodils
There were 88 entries in all from 20 exhibitors. The classes P1, P2 and P4 had so many entries that the judges and show chairs decided to subdivide those classes. Unfortunately, after the show the names of the subdivided classes have been lost; we have made our best effort to reconstruct those class names.

The blue ribbon winners of the classes were preserved, however, and these are listed below, with the titles of their entries:
Class class name photographer title
P1a Portraits: Division 4 Cherry Groves Petit Four
P1b Portraits: other divisions Kathy Anderson N. triandrus triandrus S___

The winner of the Wells Knierim Ribbon for Best Photograph in Show was Stacy Tigner for “The Night Before.” The three judges each selected a personal favorite that in their opinion had special merit. Those Judges Choices were “Petit Four” by Cherry Groves, “All Packed Up for Chicago” by Matt Groves and “Lucy in Pink with Daffodils” by Jackie Turbidy.
