Senior Club Competition Winners Jul 2024

Roelof Groesbeek from Centurion Camera Club is our July winner!

Roelof, congratulations on your winning image – Feeding Time

Roelof says:

The whiskered Terns were very active with a mix of adults and immatures with the adults feeding the immatures.

I took about 150 photos during the event but only retained about 30 photos. This was such a special event to observe and to get a few photos of.

Camera settings:
Exposure 1/4000s
F8
ISO 2000
Exposure compensation -1 stop
Canon 5dIV
Lens 500mm prime

Our 1st runner-up is Mietsie Visser from Vanderbijlpark Fotografiese Vereniging with “Kyk bietjie soontoe”

Our 2nd runner-up is Arnold Bester from F-Stop Fotografiese Vereniging with “Tent Web Spider”

Thank you to the judges:

Corine Ross – Krugersdorp Kameraklub

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.

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

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.
