Images were submitted across four categories; Hilbert resident Jordan Fear won best colour photograph, Bayswater’s Candy Goldsmith took out the monochrome category, East Perth resident Bernard Taylor received best altered photo and Chris Hawkins, of Como, won the mobile category.
More than 130 entries were displayed at Osborne Community Centre and Stirling Mayor Mark Irwin said submissions were of a high calibre.
“The Blink Photography Awards exhibition is one of the highlights on the City’s arts event calendar,” he said.
“It not only showcases some of the best local photography on offer but gives local amateur and professional photographers a chance to experience their work being exhibited to and celebrated by the community and gives us a chance to see a snap shot of the world through someone else’s eyes.”
