Spokie van der Merwe from Kriel Fotoklub is our March winner!
Spokie, congratulations on your winning image – Wegloop
Spokie says:-
My photo was inspired by a photoshoot of this cute little boy. I tried to have him walk away from me and look over his shoulder but he had a mind of his own.
It is a composite of 5 different photos (24 layers). I changed the background to tell a story and used the moon just to change the mood. The hut was placed on a strategic spot to add to the story that in a far distance there is hope in the dark. Although 4 out of 5 photos were taken in broad daylight I manipulated it to have a night scene.
Specs of the photos are as follows:
Hut Canon 80D F11, 1/80, Iso 100
Boy Canon 550D F5.6, 1/1250, Iso 100
Grassland Canon 550D F7.1, 1/640, Iso 200
Moon Canon 550D F6.3, 1/13, Iso 800
Railroad Canon 550D F3.5, 1/800 Iso 200
Our 1st runner-up is Jannes Drotsky from Bethal Fotografieklub with “Leeu in vroegoggend mis”
Our 2nd runner-up is Dieter Butow from Cape Town Photographic Society with “Sea Lion tenderness”

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.
