ARE you a happy snapper, do your mates comment that you should
enter your photos in competitions?
Maybe you’re a unit photographer or you were in the right
place at the right time and got the money shot. Do you look at
Defence photography and think “I can do that”.
Well here is your chance to show the ADF what you are capable
of with a camera.
Air Force, Army and Navy newspapers are looking for this year’s
best Amateur Defence Photographer in the second ADF Amateur Photography
Competition.
There are prizes including Nikon cameras for first, second and
third placings with a special prize for the Harry Burton Memorial
Award.
The winner will also receive the ADF Amateur Photographer Trophy
