    Tim Newbery AFIAP, AAPS, Hon EFIAP, Hon FAPS

Whilst his love is wildlife he enjoys taking pictures of people and landscapes. In all these cases he strives to capture the moment rather than staged pictures. Tim believes strongly, that it is better to get it right on the camera rather than relying on software to fix mistakes later.

Tim gained his AFIAP in 1975, Hon FAPS in 1982, Hon EFIAP in 1987, AAPS in 1997

    Tony Parkes AFIAP, FAPS

Tony first developed his love of photography after being rendered a Quadriplegic that confined him to a wheelchair, 35 years ago. Twenty five years ago he discovered another side of photography, National and International Exhibitions which appealed to his competitive nature. He discovered achieving success at these exhibitions was not easy but this made him work harder on his photography skills. His effort was rewarded when he was asked to judge his first National Exhibition in 1990. He has since judged many National and International Exhibitions.

Tony has a main photographic interest in Photo Journalism especially sports photography but his true passion is photographing birds in their natural environment, which can be very challenging and he has achieved success in both the Sport and Wildlife categories. For many years he has entered National and International Exhibitions and gained many awards. During this period he was very prominent in Australian Photography either by winning categories or being well placed behind some brilliant Australian bird Photographers who were the best in Australia and Internationally.

Tony gained his AAPS in 1991, FAPS in 1997 and AFIAP in 1998.

    Dawn Zandstra AAPS, FCC ESA

Dawn has had an avid interest in photography for many years. From the beginning Dawn was interested in producing images that were imaginative and creative. The world of digital photography opened this world, and she was able to progress from her work with transparencies to a world with unknown horizons. This has been a most rewarding journey as there are absolutely no limits to the creative fields for photographers.

Dawn has judged in NSW camera clubs, National and International competitions since 1996.

During the last six years Dawn has been presenting exhibitions of creative photography to various groups. She really believes photography is an art form to be explored to the limits of the photographers imagination.
