Congratulations to Peti Deuxmont of Wellington, the second winner of a Sony Alpha A100 digital SLR package. Peti describes how she took her “Moo” image:
“I took this photo in Upper Wainui Rd in Raglan this year. There had just been a downpour and I went outside to stand in the sun, and became fascinated with this herd of cows who were as equally fascinated with me. They were soaked! They all lined up at the fence and just stared at me in silence for as long as I was snapping away at them.”
Here’s what our judges said…
- “An iconic New Zealand scene.”
- “A nicely composed and simple photo that neatly avoids cliché; engaging and witty.”
- “The simple curiosity of cattle is captured beautifully.”
We still have two Sony Alpha A100 digital SLRs to give away, so keep sending your photos to us. The next winner will be selected on January 14th.

Congratulations to Katie Bayes of Putaruru for being the first photographer to win a Sony Alpha A100 digital SLR package. Katie describes her “Bathtime Al fresco” image as: “Briar and her brother Campbell enjoy a bath among the Clematis and Forget-Me-Nots on a sunny South Waikato day in spring.”
Here's what our judges said...
• “Like all good pictures, it tells a story. This story reminds us of life’s simple pleasures”
• “The framing and colour combination of skin tones, tarnished metal and the flowery surround has a stunning balance”
• “Reminiscent of holidays gone by and a time before the bach became a mansion...“
