2019 was my 1st year entering the Photography image competition.
I entered a total of 10 images and 8 of those received a Merit rating of having a score of 80 or above. 433 images in total were entered with a merit percentage of 59% so coming in with 80% was pretty exciting for me.
In addition, one of my images wan 1st place in the illustrative Animal category, plus a Top 10 Photographer award and the Emerging Photographer award.
Here are the images that merited.
