2006 ANZANG AWARDS ANNOUNCED
The winners of this year's ANZANG Nature and Landscape Photographer of the Year Awards have been announced, and I'm proud to report the news that I've taken out the Threatened Species Category with an image of a Yellow-eyed Penguin captured at Moeraki, on New Zealand's South Island.
This is the third year of the competetion, which features images created in the region that includes Australia, New Zealand, Antarctic and New Guinea and the South West Pacific. Over 1100 entries were received for the 2006 awards, making it the largest nature photography competition in Australasia.
As well as the category win, I received two Highly Commendeds in the Underwater Category, with a Whale Shark image from Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia, and a portrait of a Southern Humpback Whale from Va'vau in Tonga.
The Yellow-eyed Penguin and Whale Shark images are available as Limited Editions of 25 prints, while the Humpback is available as a Gallery Edition or canvas. Please contact me direct at info@darrenjew.com for details.
