We would like to take this opportunity, the end of our 2021 year, to thank our members who have stuck with us for yet another interesting year that saw our planned syllabus thrown into disarray due to COVID.
We thank our of our wonderful presenters, judges, and members who have shared their skills and knowledge with us through 2021 and we look forward to sharing our 2022 syllabus with you all soon.
Image of the year 2021
Congrats to our winners of our images of the year. Unlike previous years, but the same as 2020, we were only accepting digital entires throughout the year and therefore only digital images were up for contention. We had 25 entries for A Grade and 32 for B Grade, from which, a judging panel from Warragul Camera Club made their final selections.
