Photography Competition 2024

Our Annual School Photography Competition recently took place, and the standard of entries was once again exceptionally high.

The competition was open to all pupils in S1 – S6, who set to work capturing their best image that fell into one of five themes: landscape, portraiture, architecture, action, night-time, and abstract.

With a judging panel comprising of four of our S6 pupils who currently study Higher Photography, they split the entries into two winners: Junior (S1 – S3) and Senior (S4 – S6). They were very impressed by the technical and creative flair demonstrated in these winning images and were delighted to announce that the winners for 2024 were:

• Senior Overall Winner – Lewis (S6)
  Lewis’ talent to take an action-shot so clear with no blurring whilst using a film camera suitably impressed the judges.
  
• Junior Overall Winner – Benjamin (S2)
  Benjamin’s eye for capturing the dramatic, dark and stormy image set the bar for all other entries for the judges.
  

Congratulations to our Runners-Up who also impressed the judges with their atmospheric landscape and use of light exposure:

• Senior Runner-up – Logan (S5)
  
• Junior Runner-up – Lev (S1)
  

In addition to the winners, special mention goes to the following pupils whose photographs were noted by the judges as being the best in their category:

Junior:

• Alex (S1)
• Lara (S2)

• James (S2)
