Camera Club Competition Results - July

Another competition for PACC - this month the subjects were Nature and Open

 

The Nature category is very special category for Port Adelaide Camera Club.

 

Dianne Davies Memorial Nature Trophy

Dianne Davies was a very popular and well-respected member of the Port Adelaide Camera Club from 2006 to 2016.

Dianne achieved many photographic accomplishments with the club, including winning the:

· Silver Club Trophy once;
· Gold Club Trophy 6 times; 
· Nature Trophy 3 times; 
· Photo of the Year Trophy in 2015; and 
· Our Port Adelaide Trophy in 2016.

Dianne passed away in August 2016 after a battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

In 2017, the PACC Committee introduced a memorial trophy in her name. We are all that much richer for her enthusiastic and inspirational contribution.  

 

My best results for this month were:

End of Year Photography results

We attended the end of year presentation night for Port Adelaide Camera Club Incorporated last night and I got a few surprises!

 
I got a 'Merit' for the Club Aggregate Award (4th Place) and a 'Merit' (4th Place) for the Print POTY (Photograph of the Year)

Best part of the night for me though, was being presented with the Donna Hutchinson Memorial Award for my image 'Port Adelaide - A work of Art' for 1st Place in 'Our Port Adelaide' Print competition.

 

 

 

Donna was a well loved member of PACC and passed away quite unexpectedly in 2022. Here I am with Donna's partner, Mike ....... I like to think Donna would be happy for my win! 
 

 

Feeling quite optimistic about embarking on my 14th year with PACC.

I won a trophy!

My very first ever trophy ;-)   you cannot wipe the smile off my face ;-)



Port Adelaide Camera Club had their presentation night last night and I was most shocked and surprised to find I had placed First in the Silver Aggregate section.

All scores for photos entered throughout the year are added up and divided by the number of entries - the top 3 are classified as Gold, and the next 3 are classified as Silver .......... so effectively, I was placed 4th in the whole group!  

Considering the skill level of the Gold recipients, I am most surprised and pleased with my results  ;-)

All photos from the presentation can be seen on Flickr HERE  or Facebook HERE

Many thanks to all the club members for their support and encouragement!
What a great way to end the year ;-)
