All RPS members are welcome to join the Travel Group.
The Group was formed to promote the enjoyment of travel photography: of trying to capture the spirit of places we visit and sharing that through photography. All our activities have the development of the skills necessary to achieve this at their core.
The Group is at its liveliest and most effective when there is discussion involving a wide range of members.
The 2022 competition was judged by Dr. Hazel Frost, FRPS, Chair of the Travel Distinctions panel.

Drinking at the Waterhole - Botswana by Bob Chiu ARPS
My first impression of the twelve images was that they were all worthy winners. They demonstrated the enormous scope of Travel images and creating that “sense of place” During these difficult times I feel an image that communicates the photographer’s intent makes you stop and look in detail and then create an impression of a place or an emotion was important. Strong images have that extra seeing or visual awareness and there was merit in all these images for different reasons.
This image immediately caught my eye- the layers of subdued colour, the dust and the heat took one to the African bush. The recession of the subjects held my attention and on looking round the image the focal point for me was the Zebra and the wildebeest facing each other -and the reflections of the zebra then led the eye in from the left. Technically it was good and visually it was strong- suiting the panoramic format.
