The Audrey Bury Memorial Competition - 2013
The Audrey Bury Memorial Competition was inaugurated at the Spring Meeting of The LEICA Fellowship held in the Linton Lodge Hotel, Oxford on Saturday 20th April 1985.
Audrey Bury attended a Leica course in Luton in June 1978 and shortly afterwards joined The LEICA Fellowship.
She came to her first Fellowship weekend in September 1978 travelling from her home in Tipperary, Eire by Land-Rover accompanied by her little dog.
Her enthusiasm for Leica equipment, The LEICA Fellowship, sense of humour and friendliness of this softly spoken Irish lady endeared her to those she came into contact.
Regrettably following an illness she died in October 1982.
A short while later Audrey's family bestowed on The LEICA Fellowship a sum of money that was used to purchase a suitable trophy for a competition in her memory.
The rules of the Competition include:
The Competition will take place at each Spring Meeting of The LEICA Fellowship and will be known as "The Audrey Bury Memorial Competition".
The winner of the competition will receive the Rosebowl inscribed "The Audrey Bury Memorial Award" and retain it for a period of twelve months.
The judging panel will consist of three ladies drawn from the members and guests present at the meeting.
The competition entries will be black and white and/or colour slides, or projected digital images of any subject, with each competitor entering a maximum of four entries.
Entries will only be accepted from members attending the Spring Meeting.
Winning entries are not eligible for re-entry in any future The LEICA Fellowship competition.
