A Great Result at The Mono Awards

People. Places. Animals.

The Mono Awards is Australia and New Zealand’s largest competition dedicated to the art of monochrome photography. So, I am stoked to share that my image ‘Spider and the Dew’ has placed in the Top 20 at Number 14 in the ‘Animals’ category.

Monochrome photography is all about your tonal range so choosing images for this comp is in stark contrast to choosing impactful colour images. As a monochrome image does not have the true colours of an image, these images fall into the more abstract genre of photography and are often considered to be more arty! Since monochrome imagery was where photography started, these images can also appear to be timeless!

The Mono Awards attracted over 4,000 entries this year from photographers around Australia and New Zealand in the three categories — Animals, People and Places. Since it’s inception five years ago, this competition has become incredibly popular. It is an incredible privilege to have been included as a finalist and I am looking forward to seeing my image in print when the Capture magazine comes out soon.

You can see the Top 40 in each of the three categories on the Mono Awards facebook page. The People’s Choice voting is now open so I would really appreciate your vote with an emoji if my image speaks to you…
