And now, the winning images in each of the four classes have also been chosen. The judge used for this daunting task was Anne Sutcliffe, of Solihull in Central England. She has served on the Royal Photographic Society’s (RPS) Distinction Assessment panel for 12 years and now serves as the liaison officer between the RPS and the Photographic Society of America (PSA); assisting with the planning for the PSA Portfolio Distinction and the training of its assessors. Anne is also a member of the PSA Portfolio Committee which serves to constantly refine and improve all aspects of the image assessment process. In making her choices, Anne wanted to pass along comments that every image was terrific and choosing the top four was not an easy process.
