PhotoGroup Chairman Barry Hunt
It's my pleasure to introduce the PhotoGroup's Annual Online Photography Exhibition 2026. The 22nd edition attracted a total of 197 entries across five categories submitted by 22 authors. All images were taken in the UK, including the Chilterns of course. The popular 'Landscape' category accounted for 34 percent of entries with 67 images, followed by 'Flora & Fauna' with 43. The 'Heritage' category attracted 31 submissions, 'Other' reached 29 images, and 'Buildings' received 27 images.
Many of the subjects include informative captions, that may well tell a story. As to the creative input, each image is accompanied by an informative comment that focuses on the 'how and why' that allows us to interpret a particular image. Again we are grateful to Damon Guy's painstaking and freely-given work in this regard.
Exhibition Commentator Damon Guy
"To quote the renowned American landscape photographer Ansel Adams, 'There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.' They are the most important people in photography. The one creates, and the other interprets. My job is all the more interesting because of the variety and insight that the images have provided for interpretation this year. The viewer's eye will be pleased by what they see here. Commenting has been very enjoyable too. Thanks to everyone who contributed images this year. Well done"
Damon Guy has been a photographer since his teens. Once hooked, his interest led to serious camera purchases.
Damon focussed mainly on personal projects and interests. In 2000, he got his first digital camera. That sparked off a broader relationship with photography that continues today.
After years as a camera club member, Damon went professional in 2010. Now he runs a photography website (https://photokonnexion.com), teaches photography and works freelance too. Damon also manages photographic judging in the Chilterns Association of Camera Clubs. He is an active photographic judge and lecturer at camera clubs throughout the SE of England.
