2007 Johannesburg digital winners

We couldn't convince the judges to award a prize to the best series. However, at the same time, it seemed they wanted to give every single photographer a prize for one (or several) great photographs they shot on February 24th.
Of course, that would have been absurd, so we beat them, the jury, in to as much submission as we could.

Here are the 2007 Jo'burg photomarathon digital winners:

(At the time of writing, Stephen Davies still had to pick up his prize, so be quick Stephen. You never know what happens to these lovely bags..!)

First prize, an iPod shuffle

Second prize, a large Crumpler bag

Robert Steenporte clearly was on a roll as he got no less than two pictures in, in the list of second prizes. That was considered a bit too much, so we gave him just one, extremely nice, bag.

Third prize, a Crumpler bag

Fourth prize, a small Crumpler bag

To the winners: Well done Guys. Some excellent photographs. It was amazing what some of you did with what you had available. The whole photoshoot event reminds me of a quote by Theodore Roseveld: "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."

To the people of the Bag Factory and their associates: Thanks for all your hard work, in arranging teh event, getting sponsors, getting judges and hosting the whole event. We realise that you have put a lot of time into making this a success and we appreciate it. We are looking forward to the next event, once you have recovered from this one.

Thanks

Willie Pienaar
