1 Magpie Springs Photographic Competition 2015 Photographers.charge you batteries!!! you can commence Sunday Jan 31st 2015!!! History when we first bought this property so many people took photographs onsite we decided it was time to show off what people were finding, run a competition and have a show. The photographers had a 3 month period to find their treasures Having had full reign over the property during this time (80 acres). Photographers came day and night. This property being a unique site it s not just about the vineyard has had plenty to offer from rustic artefacts, flora and fauna, to picturesque settings, happenings meanwhile the vineyard was at work with vintage so images of that ilk were also on offer. Anything goes from macro to panorama as long as its taken onsite within the time period! This made for a very interesting and diverse show. Fun! It was an all-inclusive with everyone able to participate from photographers, judges to public. Congratulations to everyone for being part of our show last year. Hope to see you again this year spread the word, more the merrier!!
