An Environmental Photographic Arts Competition and Exhibition
Far North Exposure is a celebration of the environment and the arts. As a way of celebrating World Environment Day (June 5th 2010) with a Far North focus, the Far North Environment Centre is proud to present a series of environmental photographic arts exhibitions featuring the work sourced through a community photo competition.
The 2010 competition theme:
“Our Water, Our Future”
A picture is worth a thousand words is a proverb that refers to the idea that complex stories can be described with just a single still image, or that an image may be more influential than a substantial amount of text.
The photo may be a landscape, a detail of the natural world, or an image that reveals an aspect of human impact on our environment. It is your vision and image, so we will leave it to your imagination.
The categories:
The competition is divided into three age categories
Infant to 16 years old
17 to 40 years old
41 years and over
The prizes:
A category winner will be selected from each of the three age categories. Each category winner will win a Fujifilm J28 Splashpack underwater digital camera, plus one week’s camping at a Far North Department of Conservation campsite.
One overall winner selected from the category winners will also receive a $100 gift voucher redeemable from Trees Company Nursery.
