Getaway Magazine Gallery Competition 2016 Winners

I entered the Getaway Magazine Gallery Competition 2016 on the 21st August 2016 and was informed that I was a finalist for the November Gallery, which can be read here on my previous blog. The final results of the competition have been announced in January 2017  issue of Getaway Magazine as per competition rules. Getaway Magazine Gallery Competition 2016  is a prestigious showcase of the best photographs their readers have to offer. Enthusiasts brush shoulders with professionals at the highest levels, as both have the opportunity to win fantastic prizes. Congratulations to the Getaway Magazine Gallery Competition 2016 winners. This year Getaway Magazine present their biggest competition yet, with travel and equipment prizes to the value of over R160 000. Prizes include the opportunity to see desert elephant in Kaokoland, one of Namibia’s wildest areas, plus fantastic equipment prizes – including a drone!

The Final Winning Shots

Below are the winning images, well done and congratulations to everyone that entered, I am glad I did not have the difficult task of judging, as there were really top quality images submitted! I recognised quite a few names from the various Facebook photographic pages and groups I belong to.

I have enjoyed this privilege and opportunity to have been an entrant as well. Winning isn’t everything, I enjoy the recognition, accreditation and validification that my work receives, it is great to have your work published. I am really pleased that my image ended up finishing with a Top Ten Finish and a Highly Commended placing overall!

About Me

I’m a passionate photographer based in the Western Cape Winelands, South Africa, working both locally and internationally. I specialise in a wide range of photographic genres, and I work with both digital and traditional film formats — including 35mm, 120, 127, 4×5″, 4×10″, 5×7″, 8×10 and 7×17″. My love for photography runs deep, and I’m dedicated to capturing the essence of every subject, whether in the studio or out in the field.

As a registered member of Nikon Professional Services (NPS) and a contributor to Nikon South Africa’s social media platforms and website, I’m proud to be part of a network that values photographic excellence.

My work has been published in several leading South African publications, including:

  • Atlantic Gull Magazine (cover feature)
  • SA4x4
  • HIGH LIFE (British Airways Magazine)
  • Getaway Magazine
  • Wildside Magazine
  • Weg! / go! Magazine

I was honoured to be named a Top Ten finalist in the 2016 Getaway Magazine Gallery Competition, receiving a Highly Commended distinction. My video work has also been featured by the national broadcaster eNCA.
