South Gippsland Council is encouraging those who are interested to join the Australia Day photography competition to submit their entries.
South Gippsland Shire Council is once again running an Australia Day photography competition. The theme of the competition is Australia Day: Reflect, Respect, Celebrate. We're all part of the Story and images must be taken within South Gippsland Shire or nearby. Entrants can interpret the theme however they choose, and entries are welcome from any South Gippsland resident or ratepayer.
Submissions for the South Gippsland Australia Day Photography Competition must be received by 11.59pm Wednesday 18 January, 2023
Join the competition
There are two prize categories this year - an open category with a $800 prize and a junior category (15 and under) with a $200 prize. Submitted images will not be used by council outside of the competition. The Australia Day Photography Competition is funded by the National Australia Day Council. The competition is part of a wider South Gippsland Australia Day program which features a variety of events that
are coordinated by local community groups and supported by council.

Councillor Nathan Hersey, Mayor South Gippsland Shire Council said, "The South Gippsland Australia Day Photography Competition provides an opportunity to inspire creativity and demonstrate our local beauty and individuality, while supporting the important Australia Day theme which
is 'Reflect, Respect, Celebrate: We're all part of the Story'. I look forward to seeing how the theme is interpreted and would encourage South Gippsland residents to get involved."
