What a picture...

E-Central ICT Cluster Photography Competition winners Wakatipu High School pupil Catlin Jack (16), Dunstan High School pupil Nadine Ward (16), and Remarkables Primary School pupils Natayla Emanuel (9) and Isabella Weston-Cooke (6), presented their winning photographs at the exhibition at the Wooing Tree, in Cromwell, on Tuesday.

The photos by the Wakatipu pupils were voted the best out of 545 entries from schools throughout Central Otago and they won four out of the five categories. Millers Flat School pupil Melissa Bain won the open category.

Each winner received a canvas and a session with professional photographer Jacqui van Dam, of Alexandra.

The winners of the five categories were displayed on the e-Central wiki for a public vote. A total of 896 votes were cast and the winning photo, with 212 votes, was Catlin's, with Isabella only one vote behind. In third place with 201 votes was Nadine. Catlin received a Nikon DSLR camera, sponsored by Nikon NZ and Noel Leemings in Remarkables Park Town Centre, worth over $1500. Runners-up will receive gift vouchers. Canvases were sponsored by Cromwell businesses BP2GO, Henry Fluksa Builders, Computer Dux and Fusee Rouge.
