The 2018 Photography Competition is now open!!

The themes for the competition are fun and playful and very very creative giving you free reign to utilise all your ‘out of the box’ thinking. You can enter the competition from now and it is anticipated that the award night will be held mid year so stay tuned…

For the 2018 competition we have three categories for you. Let’s explore each in turn…

Serious

In this category you may find yourself taking photos capturing the concentration on a member’s face as they tee off or perhaps staff members hard at work preparing your latte. You may manage to capture a perfect moment that stirs reflection and contemplation. A simple shot that, simply captured.

Humourous

This is the category for you to capture a funny bunker shot or a playful animal interacting with a member. Perhaps you may be quick to capture some members having a laugh at a joke or a funny expression on the face of someone that is wondering why the ball went that way instead of the way they had intended it to go. A simple shot, that makes us chuckle and laugh.

Fantasy

This is the category for you to be as creative as you like. To submit a photo in this category we recommend you play with photoshop if you have it or download an app on your phone that helps you to create an interesting image (e.g. Mextures or Snapseed or Stackables). Some ideas for this category may be colour changing the photo or overlaying two photos together or creating a special effect of some kind. You may like to add a texture to your photo or create light leaks. Here are some examples of what this terminology means…
