This was quite fun. I’d mounted Gabo in a mid-denim blue mount to pick out the darker blues of the image and informal feedback on the night was “Oo-er… a coloured mount eh? Good luck with that.”…! Well the judge was rather taken with it and scored it 19/20, commenting positively on the mount - though stressing that it in no way swayed her. She liked the overall thrust of the image upwards, which was nice given that I’d hastily decided to display it that way up on the way to the club…
Judge: Naomi Saul
