Senior Club Competition Winners November 2023

Hits: 598

Ursula Baumann from Randburg Photo Club is our November winner!

Ursula, congratulations on your winning image – The Echoes of Eternity

Ursula says:-

The image ‘The Echoes of Eternity’ was inspired by my husband’s new hairstyle. 

Him being German, the Viking history, music and mottos fascinate him, and I wanted to capture just that.

The portrait was taken in my parent’s garden in Parys and the background textures and images were pencil drawings done by myself.  I loved creating this image extremely.

Our 1st runner-up is Cathy Dooley from Benoni Camera Club with “Sammy”
Our 2nd runner-up is Jack Weinberg from Sandton Photographic Society with “Yellow daisies with bud”

Thank you to the judges:

Hanli Smit from Edenvale Camera Club
Kim Stevens from Cape Town Photographic Society
Jeroen Luyk from Krugersdorp Camera 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.  

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.

Click here to download instructions on how to upload your entry onto Photovault

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.
