The Christian Fletcher TNFP Landscape Awards
After reading the comments about the Canon APPA awards I am thinking about running my own dedicated landscape awards. Now it is just an idea at this stage but I have just had a meeting with Mark Stothard from True North and I am thinking of offering one of the cabins on True North as the prize. This will be for the winner and their partner. I still need to look into the legalities of running such a competition but what I would like to know right now is who would be interested in entering. So all you people who visit my blog but don’t post a reply can you please leave a ” yes I would be interested” so I know it will be worth running. The APPA awards are for pros that are members of the AIPP. That excludes most of you out there so these awards could become the non industry standard and the must enter event every year. The judging will be by a panel of three and everything will be done on-line. If this first event goes well then we may offer the whole of True North up to win for 18 lucky photographers and their partners. How good would that be. Let me know what you think.
Cheers
Yes ..interested….but I what am I going to do with a cabin, where would I put it?

Interested indeed! I hope the whole CAKE09 crew can win as a joint venture. Having the CAKE09 crew onboard True North would – I think – be a cataclysmic event!

Now on the surface it looks like a great idea but I’ve been stung by you before!!! Sounds like an April fools without been on the 1st April. Once bitten twice shy. Oh and welcome home (the lady at your Margs gallery tells me your’e back today)

Hey Christiano, sounds good mate.
I’ve been working on a new photo competition with my sponsors for a while so I’ll talk to you soon so we can compare notes on the fine print. We launch later this year for 2010
Although my comp is for nudes only 😉 Well, ok there’s a landscape section

Michael Sharp said this on July 9, 2009 at 5:46 pm |
Sounds like a great idea Christian! I’ll have a crack. If I win that means I get chauffered around the Kimberley instead of being the Chauffer! That will be a change. :-O
Hope you have a good time up there in September, cheers!

Yes, interested of course!
Anne said this on July 11, 2009 at 4:10 am |
Yes interested as long as Hewitt and Eastway are not part of the panel. Give us photographer’s that don’t want to burn the crap our of our images a chance and the women!
Hazel said this on July 11, 2009 at 6:58 am |

You can put me down as interested Christian.
Tony said this on July 12, 2009 at 7:13 am |
Interesting comments from the person who doesn’t want Eastway and Hewitt involved . . . I wonder if they saw your efforts Fletch at the WA Professional Awards last year . . . looked they had been done with a blowtorch !

Tony said this on July 12, 2009 at 8:00 am |
HA HA I did see them but assumed he was trying to fit the mould…. bad boy! I don’t fit any mould and I never win competitions. I think I will just stick to making pictures and sack the comps. BTW like your work and some of Mr Eastways I’m just not a copy cat.
Hazel said this on July 12, 2009 at 3:20 pm |
yuh, like hell id be entering!
