January 27, 2016 by Niamh Whitty Leave a Comment

Canon_WEB_logoThe finals of the IPF Photographer of the Year Competition 2015/2016 take place on Saturday February 20th at The Newpark Hotel, Kilkenny.  The competition this year is once again very generously sponsored by Canon.

Judging will begin at 10am and will be carried out by an international panel of three very experienced judges;

  • Paul Keene FRPS MPAGB EFIAP/p MFIAP
  • Riccardo Busi MFIAP EFIAP/p HonEFIAP
  • Rikki O’Neill FPRPS MPAGB FIPF Hon SPF

Judging is open to public viewing and the judging sessions is free of charge to attend. We encourage all photographers to attend as it’s a great opportunity to not only view the judging process, but also to see some gorgeous images and find out what it takes to win at national level!

All images in the final have qualified from regional qualifying rounds around the country and we wish all photographers the very best of luck.
