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.

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.

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."
