Competitions

By Michelle Chappell. Town of Gidgegannup in rural WA. A close-up shot of an old tractor’s gear sticks taken at my father’s farm in the late afternoon.

By David Ashley. I took this image at Lucky Bay, Cape Le Grand National Park just outside of Esperance WA. I had heard of the beauty of the place and of the kangaroo population that laze on the pure white sand soaking up the sun. No white sand on this particular day as rough seas overnight had covered the shore in seaweed.

This however provided a comfortable base for the roos to relax on and you could tell, they were enjoying their day in the sun!

By Mihail Kopychko. Children compete in running across the street.

By Peta Burton. I always feel the frog is there with open ears and have it on a block frame on my office desk. He’s a poser!

By David Edwards. [Second winner of Image Review 3.] I shot this image at the Victorian Arts Centre where there is a water window. The water running down the window creates various areas of blur, and the distance from the window also changes the image. I have spent many hours at this spot trying to get a wow photo, but until this day it had alluded me. I think with this shot everything came together. The blurred people in the background, the father looking down at his daughter, and of course the little girl in the red jacket and yellow hat. And to cap it off she reaches out to touch the water.

By Duing Huynh. This photo was taken in Wuxi China on my business trip looking down the Nanchang Canal at night. I took the photo with the camera sitting on the bridge platform as I did not have my tripod. The photo had not been edited in any form except for cropping using Photoshop 5.1.

All photographers face the challenge of seeing photographically – as opposed to just seeing.
