WELCOME TO THE CRESTA SHOPPING EXPERIENCE

Caxton Photo of The Week



Randburg Sun’s Photo of the Week competition has grown in leaps and bounds since its humble beginning in 2007.

Each week readers submit photographs to the Randburg Sun to be entered into the weekly photo competition. While being open to amateur photographers only, the competition has resulted in some incredible images.

Readers have used the competition as a creative outlet to share holidays, special moments, personal interests and points of view with Randburg Sun readers. The Randburg Sun is enormously grateful, and waits in eager anticipation of new entries.

The competition opens every Monday at 1pm and closes the following Monday at 12.59pm. This means that while your photo may not win one week, should you re-enter the same photograph the following week, it may turn out the winner.

There have been an astonishing variety of entries from children, grandparents and every age group in between; from men, women, parents, students, working professionals and home executives of every race and creed. From readers who have only just ventured into the world of digital photography, to others who have been experimenting for years. Some people enter once, others send in a number of photos every week.

In 2009 the newspaper introduced monthly themes for the competition, which have proved immensely popular, and will be carried through to 2010’s competition.

Each week the winning photo is printed onto an A2 canvas (sponsored by Photo2art) and given to the winner. At the end of the competition the canvases are returned to the Randburg Sun for a public exhibition, and for the overall winners to be chosen. After the prize-giving the canvases are returned to their owners.

This year 2009’s 48 winning canvases will be on display in the Barnyard forecourt at Cresta Shopping Centre from 23 to 28 February, followed by an award evening of fun and prizes at Cresta Barnyard on 1 March.

Prizes are awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place, which are judged by local professional photographers, while the Readers’ Choice Award is voted for by readers. Thank you very much to all who have supported the Photo of the Week competition during the last few years.
