Silsoe Photography Exhibition 2024
On Saturday 12 October 2024, all the entries in this year’s Photo Competition were exhibited in Silsoe Church. We had nearly double the number entries from last year and Rev Simon & Rev Louise had a hard job choosing the winners from all the very good entries on the theme Nature.
Over 100 visitors came along to have a look at the photos, find out who had won and vote for their favourite image. Along with the photos from the Competition there was a display showing the Silsoe Beavers working towards their Photography Badge and two professional photographers – Charlie Nixon a wildlife photographer and Katrina Wilson a pet photographer – had their work on display. People took the opportunity to sit and chat with friends and neighbours over coffee and cakes or a lunch of home made soup.
