All three days of the exhibition were very busy with a few thousands of visitors. It was lovely for the members to be able to share their work with their friends and family, and we were all happy to welcome some of our past Guest Judges – Robert Ferguson, founder of “Wild creatures Hong Kong” being one of them.
