The
Beginner's Competition for the Best Portfolio, organised by
BSoUP and sponsored by DIVER Magazine, has been held annually
since 1980. In that year GRAHAM PATTIE emerged a clear winner
with six slides varied in character. The following year BRIAN
HUMPHRIES won the DIVER Trophy with six slides taken in British
and 'foreign waters.
Six
slides shot in the Red Sea won the Trophy for MIKE VALENTINE
in 1982 and last year saw the first lady winner when LINDA
PITKIN received the Trophy for her portfolio taken in British
and foreign waters.
This
year the trend set by Linda continued when VIV PEARSON beat
thirty-eight other beginners to win the DIVER Trophy and a
cheque for £50 donated by BERNARD EATON, Diver's editor,
and two tickets for 'INNER SPACE 84', an audio visual extravaganza,
donated by MIKE VALENTINE. |
