LOOKING IN ON MYSELF | KATE ATKINSON

Looking for some photographic projects to do at home whilst in lockdown, I decided to turn the camera on the only person I could. Myself. ‘Looking in on myself’ is a photographic record of how I spent my time and the process was a way to spend my time.

Kate Atkinson has been taking photos ever since she was given a pink Kodak 110 cartridge film camera as a 7 year old.  

Since that time, she has traveled extensively around the globe and Australia for both leisure and work, photographing people she meets and places she goes

Highly Commended

MORNING THOUGHTS | PEPIJN THIJSSE

Foggy mornings always get me excited for street photography. It transforms the mood of places and people seem more contemplative. I saw this person sitting by the river thinking and tried a few compositions before settling on a close, low angle. I left him to his thoughts.

Highly Commended

THE FALLS #2 SPRING CREEK, QUEENSLAND | GREGORY HANLON

The mid-afternoon sunlight danced amongst the tall eucalypts onto the forest floor bracken swaying in a summer breeze. This image was captured in the Falls region, Spring Creek, Queensland. The 5.0sec long exposure vertical ICM accentuating the somewhat abstract painterly result.

Thanks to all of the photographers who entered this, for our inaugural Stanthorpe Photography Awards. And many thanks to our Town Crier, Bob Townshend, our Guest of Honour, Peta Stilgoe, our Judges Elizabeth Findlay and Geoff Thompson and all our volunteers for helping with this event.

The exhibition runs until 28 November.
