WAMM COMPETITION/EXHIBITION THEME 2021
"CHANGE"
WAMM Competition/Exhibition “Change”
Our world is transforming, sometimes evolving but also regressing. This can be through development, such as growth, building and renewal, but also degeneration: ruining by the actions of man or decomposing as a result of nature.
Your image needs to show the effect of a change to our state, Western Australia, and indicate in its one word title the sort of change that is happening.
Members of WAPF affiliated camera clubs are invited to enter this competition by submitting digital images. A panel of WAPJA judges will select the 50 finalists, which will be printed by Fitzgerald Photo Imaging and exhibited at the WA Maritime Museum. All finalists will receive the matted print of their entry. The winning entry will be chosen by the judging panel and announced at the prize presentation ceremony. Visitors to the museum will be invited to submit votes for a People’s Choice prize.
