Competition Definitions
Competition 1 – Spring
“Images should capture spring as the season during which the natural world revives and reinvigorates after the colder winter months. Such images might convey the feeling of spring through the use of sunshine, brightness or vivid colours and/or include symbols of spring such as rebirth, rejuvenation, renewal, resurrection and regrowth.”
Competition 2 – Street Photography
“Street photography is a non-formalized genre of photography that features subjects in candid situations within public places such as streets, parks, beaches, shops, political conventions and other associated settings. Images can often be ironic or emotionally detached from subject matter, focusing instead on a particular context or detail. Framing and timing are key aspects of the craft, with the aim of creating images at a decisive or poignant moment”
Competition 3 – Tryptich
“A tryptich is a set of three associated artistic works intended to be appreciated together.” It is important that there is cohesion/story telling between the images not just a random collage of shots
Competition 4 – Reflection
“With this topic reflections of a subject provide the centre of interest. They may be produced by water, windows, metal etc.
