2022 Photo Competition Winners!

October 27, 2022 by mccgadmin

The 24th MCCG Photo Competition was another big success!  82 photos for the open categories were submitted by 22 photographers and 22 photos for the digital Young Persons (grade 1 – 6) category were submitted by 14 young photographers. This year’s judge, Martin Riley (president of the Queensland Camera Group) certainly had his work cut out for him!

The public voting was very popular with 439 People’s Choice (Open) votes tallied up over the 6 days of the display at Kenmore Village and a massive 679 votes (likes) were tallied up over the 5 days (Mon to Fri) on our social media sites to determine the Young Persons People’s Choice winner.
