Print and Projected 2013 Winners
Congratulations to all of the winners of this year”s Print and Projected Image Competition. As can be seen below, the standard of work was exceptional and the volume of entries was significantly increased on previous years.
Thank you to competition co-ordinator Michael O”Sullivan for his dedication and commitment in making this event such a success, to Niamh Whitty for running the weekend and to the team of volunteers, in particular Jason Town for handling the scoring system and Paul Maher who did a great job managing prints.onlinecasinocanada1 It”s very easy to overlook the amount of work that takes place not just on the day itself but in the year and months leading up to the finals. Thanks to all involved.
Many thanks to Canon for their generous sponsorship. The lucky overall winner received an EOS 60D camera and a Pixma Pro-1 printer, and winners in each categories got a Pixma MG6350 printer and sample packs of photo paper.
Much thanks also to Picturk – who powered the online entry system for this competition and provided countless hours of work both at national and regional levels to ensure things ran smoothly at the finals.
Judging was carried out by experienced international judges; Leigh Preston (England), Michael Weber (Germany) and Peter Patterson (Scotland) and they also deserve our thanks.
Prints have been returned via your region, with top scoring images retained temporarily by IPF for potential use to represent Ireland at international competitions. Please see attached file for list of retained images.
