All unconventional photographers are encouraged to enter their photos into a photographic competition.
UNCONVENTIONAL photographers stand to win great prizes for the best selfies and other shots in a competition which aims to highlight the creative flair among the province’s youth.
The competition encourages all KZN high school pupils between the ages of 13 and 19 to perfect their photographic skills using a cellphone, tablet, GoPro or disposable plastic camera.
Five categories allow photographers the opportunity to showcase their talents, and there is no limit to the number of entries photographers can submit in the Documenting Our Lives competition.
Categories include: School Life (everyday moments that are either fun, sad, happy or odd, at break with friends or in the classroom, on the sports field or in the boarding house); My Favourite Place (a much-loved place to visit, share with friends or family); My Awesome Pet; Journalistic Shot (something that is dramatic, newsworthy and interesting); and the Best Selfie Shot.
All images submitted must have been taken since 1 February this year and entries must be submitted before the closing date on 1 September.
Winners can earn cash and other great prizes.
This competition is part of the annual Culture@Kearsney programme, a celebration of the vibrant and dynamic arts scene in KZN schools. It aims to enrich the development of the arts in all its forms – including one-act plays, a dance festival, art and photographic competitions, as well as a choral festival.
Rules and details for the photographic competition are available on www.kearsney.com and there will be an exhibition of entries during September.
