Smile! It’s photo time

By AMANDA COLWELL

New look photography section in the 2022 Pavilion.

The Coonamble Show photography section has been totally revamped in terms of entry conditions as well as a fresh new list of classes, to engage the shutterbug in all of us. 

There are no strict restrictions with regard to photo sizes, only that A4 is the maximum. Work can be presented in a glassless frame or on a cardboard mount. 

To give yourself the best possible winning chance, photos should be professionally printed on high quality photo paper.

New themes include “Pattern/texture”, “5 things”, “Abstract” and “The Shed” as well as the perennial favourites: Portraits, Action Photo and Coonamble Street Scene. 

Also new classes in the junior section are “Something I Found” and “Photo of my Friends” - a great opportunity these coming holidays to have fun with a camera!

Take a look at the full schedule for adults and juniors, now available on the Coonamble Show website www.coonambleshow.com/pavilion, for more inspiring topics in arts, crafts, horticulture and take the chance to refine some recipes before May. 

Check out your favourite section, as new topics and classes have been introduced in several areas.

Many thanks for our new, and legendary continuing sponsors for supporting all the pavilion classes. 

It’s rare to find such attractive prizemoney outside metropolitan regions, and it makes a win that much sweeter!

To make it easier for entrants, photos can be brought to the pavilion by 2-5.30pm on Friday 27th May or Saturday morning 28th May 9am-12 noon, which is the same times as all other sewing, handicrafts, fine arts and ceramics, preserves etc, with the exception of fresh flowers and fresh cooking which are to be at the pavilion from 8am on Tuesday 31st May.

See you at the Show, in the big blue (new and improved) shed!
