First prize will received a Gold Australian Photographic Society medallion, and prize money of $1500.

Finalists for Zephyr Awards
Dear entrant, on behalf of the organisers and judges of the Zephyrs, thank you for submitting your images.
We were excited to see such a large number of entries for the inaugural competition.
The competition was created specifically to acknowledge and reward photographers making innovative work, whose images sometimes get overlooked in more traditional photography competitions.
The standards were high, and the judges have finished the first round of judging.
Find below a list of finalists.
If you are a finalist, congratulations. Our judges will be meeting on Saturday 4 November to discuss and select the winning images.
If you are not a finalist this year, please accept our thanks again for participating. Each judge has also been given the opportunity to select an encouragement award from all entries submitted, so irrespective of whether you are a finalist, you could still be in the running for an award.
We can’t provide individual feedback on any of the entries, however we hope that when the winning images are revealed you will be inspired to push your creativity even further.
We look forward to seeing your work again in next year’s competition.
All the best, the Zephyrs.
