Bird Photo Competition 1 2013

We would like to thank everyone who entered this very popular competition. There were so many good photos it must have been very difficult for our judge to pick the best shots. The winning shot is one that needs to be looked at for more than a few seconds. Sometimes when you get an unusual angle you can capture something that is unique amongst many other photos, and stands out from the crowd, or should that be 'flock'. The winning prize was $865.20 plus Leica Trinovid 8 x 20 BCA Binoculars

Landscape Photo Competition 7 2012

February 27th, 2013

Our landscape judge Duncan MacArthur has picked 10 stunning winners for the last landscape photo competition. The winning shot by Christian Bernfeld is minimalistic, but I'm sure if I took a photo of the sea it would lack the amazing dreamy quality that this photo has. I often struggle to get a perfectly horizontal horizon. Christian won $900.00 plus a Leica V-LUX 40 worth approximately $800. Congratulation to all of the competition winners, and thank you again to every who took part. The results can be viewed here:
