For the fourth year running, the competition calls for all amateur and professional local photographers to submit their favourite scenic shots from postcode 3228 to be featured in the 2023 calendar. Whether it be of the dramatic scenery of the road contrasting with the cliffs and the ocean, or of the beaches where the waves and surfers make for a slice of paradise, this competition wants to see it all.
Shaun O’Callaghan, One Agency Surf Coast Director, said you don’t need to be a ‘pro’ or own a swanky camera to be a winner.
“Each year we’re blown away by the quality of the images we receive, many of which are shot on the humble iPhone!
“Not only does the calendar highlight and celebrate the beauty of where we live, but it also showcases the talented photographers in our community, both established and emerging.”
Renowned local photographer Ed Sloane will judge the competition again this year, selecting the 13 winning shots that form the high-quality calendar.
For the first time, One Agency is offering a sneak peek of the winning calendar photos before they go to print and giving the public the chance to vote for their favourite.
The winner of the ‘crowd favourite’ award will receive a dinner for two at popular local restaurant, The Kyn. As a bonus, anyone who votes will also go into a draw to win a prize.
