Published on 09 November, 2010
Congratulations to Yeppoon student Sarah Stibbards who has turned two years of hobby photography into a Top 10 finalist status in the Canon Photo 5 competition run throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The Bachelor of Learning Management (Early Childhood) student entered the competition which requires photography enthusiasts to register to receive a box containing each of the five briefs that are to be incorporated in the photos (there are a limited amount of boxes).
The briefs for this year were Eye dropper - Close up; Bubblegum - Portraiture; Incense - Black and White; Confetti - Motion; and - Inspired by sound - Open Brief.
Sarah is a finalist for the Bubblegum - Portraiture brief and the public (including UniNews readers) can LINK HERE to vote for Sarah's image until November 24. Results will be announced on December 1.
The BLM student said she was trying to build up her profile as a photographer while studying.
"This means taking photos whenever I get a chance to and I have recently done family and christening photos for a friend," she said. "I am looking to expand on my experience and hopefully one day I will be able to do weddings.
"Another of my hobbies is netball which I play in both Rockhampton and Yeppoon. Netball season is over however I played in A-grade competition in Rockhampton for Colts which put in a team for the first time this year."
