2024 BC Image Salon
Last week the BC region of the Professional Photographers of Canada held their Gala and Awards Ceremony in Kelowna, where the results of the BC Region Image Competition were announced.
Judging is done by 5 qualified judges presided by a chair. Scores awarded are “Excellence”, “Merit”, “Accepted” and “Not Accepted”
I am honoured and trilled to announce that I had 4 submissions
* under classes of Fine art, Animals, Editorial and Architecture
* 3 received a score of “Excellence” and 1 of “Merit”.
* All 4 images were judged Best in their respective class
* Plus my Fine art image (Dancing up a Storm) was selected as Judges Choice by Jury Chair Kent Wong as well as Judge Cindy Hains
* I was also announced as the BC Photographer Of the Year
There was tough competition this year with 14 very talented photographers vying for the POY. I had to pinch myself when my name was announced. I thank all fellow photographers of PPOC for all the encouragement and support they offer to help me grow.
I am not putting the images on social media as some of them would be entered for the Nationals but if you are curious to see the images, I will add a link in the comments.
