Our monthly photography competition restarted for the current season in September 2022. During the many lockdowns of the COVID-19 pandemic we held several competitions online using Zoom, but this would be the first in-person competition. There was no theme for this competition.

It would also be the first one where we collected the votes from members electronically using their phones to vote, instead of pen and paper. This allowed us to quickly count the votes as they were already in a spreadsheet. A post explaining how we used our Crowdsignal account to create a survey, and then export it to Google Sheets will follow.

There were three sections:

• Colour
• Mono
• Projected

Members are split into 3 grades. Here are the winners for each grade:

In Grade 3, Caoimhe Murphy won the colour and mono competitions with these photos.

Joe Murphy had the highest score of the grade 3 members in the projected competition:
