To launch our Photography Annual issue, CR staged a private view of the winners' work at theprintspace in London's Shoreditch...

It was great to see a lot of the winning photographers at the party (see images below). Printspace printed and mounted all the Best in Book work, while the rest of the images were projected onto the gallery walls and also displayed as running sheets from the magazine. Congratulations to all the winners.

Many thanks to everyone at theprintspace

and especially to the sponsors of the Photography Annual, leading London based photographers agent Vue

and leading retouching and CGI house Happy Finish.

Thanks also to Peroni for supplying beer and Vitamin Water for soft drinks. Here are some images from the night (photography by RGB Photographic):
