The Programme notes added “we are looking for images where the composition has been enhanced by the use of a Square 1:1 format”.

The entries displayed an exciting variety of creative subjects, styles, and approaches. There were seascapes, landscapes, portraits, close-ups, architecture, street/candid, travel, flowers, and wildlife, plus both colour and black and white.
