Focus 2018

?
The FOCUS local history photo competition has returned for 2018, with cash prizes up for grabs to amateur photographers who want to showcase their works.

To capture history and win, explore the theme of ‘The City at Play’ by photographing moments of play in the recreation spaces of the district being enjoyed by residents, their families, or four-legged friends. Wherever there’s play there’s a potential picture of a relaxed or adventurous moment.

Grab your camera and snap some pics to show the people of tomorrow how we live today!

Present-day category: image taken in the last five years in the City of Armadale.
