Camera House Photo Competition

Well its that time of the year when the Camera House employees Australia wide submit their photos to the head office. All trying to out do each other for the accolades that go along with being crowned "photographer of the year" There are 5 different categories, and the winning shots are used throughout the year in different advertising and promotional campaigns. Quite a glorious honour indeed. Last year, one of our staff, Melanie, won the "Art" section, with a great photo of a carnival ride at night time, so the pressure is on for Hervey Bay to retain a prize in this years comp. So far, between all the staff, we have submitted around 40 images, so lets hope that one of us can bask in the glorious sunlight of wining a section or indeed the crowning glory of being named "Camera House Photographer Of The Year!!" Anyway below are the images that I have submitted, there will be some very good competition so it will be interesting to see how it pans out. Winners will be announced by the end of the month..will keep you posted with the results.

All Washed Up ........

I took these photos on the last visit to 1770. I edited a couple of the photos through photoshop to give them a classic black and white look. It kind of adds a new perspective to photos.

It's about time!!!!

Cant believe it has really been that long, since I've done anything on here. Much to Helen's delight, thought I would put some photos on from our trip to Sydney.












Darling Harbour, National Maritime Museum.


















Fire works at Darling Harbour.




Darling Harbour by night. What was really cool was to have the opportunity to wander around at night

taking these photos.

1770 Sunsets................

Took this series of sunset photos on our last camping trip to 1770. It is a great place for camping, and one of the few places in Queensland where the sun sets over the water. We are planning to go back in September. Can't Wait.............
Big tide, lots of rocks and mangroves!!!
