2025 Annual Exhibition

hbccweb Leave a comment

Hebden Bridge Camera Club’s annual exhibition returned to the Town Hall this year. Nearly 1200 visitors viewed the 48 prints on display and 770 votes were cast. Visitors were asked to vote for their favourite three images in order of preference and every print on display received some votes. There was no set theme and many people commented on how difficult it was to choose, with so many good and varied images. They included local views, scenes from around the world, buildings, still life, people, animals, birds plus more abstract images. All the votes were counted and the results were as follows:

  1. Launch for Hire                      by Graham Barnes
  2. Love is in the air                    by Barbara Lansdell
  3. Street of Vaults                      by David Mosley
Launch for Hire by Graham Barnes
1st: Launch for Hire
Love is in the air by Barbara Lansdell
2nd: Love is in the air
Street of Vaults by David Mosley
3rd: Street of Vaults


The Club would like to thank all who attended for making the exhibition successful and remind anyone who is interested in joining the Club, to please contact us through our website for details of a free trial of membership.

The club’s 2026 calendar of Hebden Bridge images is now on sale in local outlets and copies can be purchased here.
