Ted's Camera Stores Photographic Competition 2009 Open Category

Hi Everyone,

Tonight at the Official Opening of the Weerama Festival, I was awarded 1st & 3rd prizes in the Ted’s Camera Stores Photographic Competition 2009 Open Category for the Weerama Festival (Werribee Community Festival) held by the City of Wyndham.

The competition was for photographs taken in the last 12 months which showcased the City of Wyndham, capturing and celebrating the Municipality’s diverse landscape, seascape and character.

I entered two of my photos “Unknown” and “A Brief History of Time”.

Unknown was awarded 1st place

and A Brief History of Time got 3rd place.

A special thanks to all of you who have supported and encouraged me.

If you’re in the area, please stop by to check out all the wonderful and diverse photographs entered by local photographers on show at the Wyndham Cultural Centre, 177 Watton St, Werribee.
