Junior Club Competition Winners Sep 2025

Jay Nabbe from PE Camera Club is our September winner!

Jay, congratulations on your winning image – Spiral movement

Jay says:

This photo is taken at the Bramante Staircase at the Vatican Museums earlier this year. I needed my 16mm to capture the whole diameter of the staircase. It was done without filters or tripod. Just by holding my arms outstretched, waiting for an even flow of people all the way down with one individual standing still. It took me about 15 minutes to get it how I envisioned it.

Camera model: Canon R6 MKII
Lens model: Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM
ISO: 100
Aperture: f8
Shutter Speed: 0.8 seconds

Our 1st Runner-up is Mary-Ann Costello from Pretoria Photographic Society with “See what I got”

Our 2nd Runner-up is Marielouise Cardwell from Fishhoek Photographic Society with “Successful hunt”

Thank you to the judges:

Brigid Wickham – Highway Camera Club
Francois Venter – National Photographic Club

HOW DOES THIS COMPETITION WORK?

This is a PSSA monthly competition where clubs enter their monthly Senior winner onto Photovault. Appointed judges select the winning image. The monthly winner gets displayed on the home page of our Web site for the duration of the month.

All images must be original and must not incorporate elements produced by anyone else. By virtue of submitting an entry, the clubs must certify all the work in the entered image as their club member’s own. The PSSA Director of Competitions has the right to ask for the RAW files.

Frequently we do require high resolutions of these images as PSSA use them for Print Exhibitions to promote PSSA as well as showcasing the work being done around the country.

At the end of the PSSA calendar year (30 June of each year) the Senior Club Competition Winning Image of the Year is selected.

HOW TO UPLOAD YOUR CLUB’S WINNING IMAGE TO PHOTOVAULT

For the Junior Club Competition Winner of the Month, a club representative (ideally the Chairperson) submits the Junior club winner via Photovault at www.photovaultonline.com.
