Steve proved to be an excellent judge, giving a detailed analysis of each picture, particularly regarding how well it fitted the brief.
Including water in the picture was not enough to impress the judge, but his comments were constructive and encouraging. Steve invited the audience to give their feedback and this resulted in some interesting discussion, as well as light-hearted banter.
