Thank you to all Circumnavigators who participated in the 2015 Photo Event. We raised well over $1000 for the Foundation and uncovered some fantastic photographs to share with our membership.
Congratulations to Suzanne Frye (New York Metro) for her outstanding shot of Camels on the Beach at Sunset, which won Best Overall Shot.
BEST OVERALL
Suzanne Frye, “Sunset Camel Ride in Broome.” Broome is on the coast of Western Australia. They have dramatic sunsets there, and it is popular to take a camel ride at sunset. Date- July 29, 2015
All of the category winners and all submitted photos are now available for viewing on this site. The links are below. For the record, this was the greatest number of photos submitted, and the quality was amazing. It was very difficult to pick the best from so many great photos.
A word or two about the judging. Three professional photographers and four serious amateur photographers did the judging. All of the shots were judged “anonymously” so that the judges did not know who took the photos. Judges who had submitted entries were not allowed to vote for their own photos. The judges were asked to pick four shots from each category. The selections by the judges were very diverse. The only shot selected by every judge was Suzanne’s photo.
The judges commented that the entries were outstanding and congratulated all of the “Circumphotogs”!
