Photo Competition

Here are the finalists of the KMF Photo Competition 2011. The winner is Tom Last with 'Duck and Cover'.





Our judge this year is Henry Iddon. Henry has over 15 years experience as a professional photographer supplying location photography of action, architecture, documentary and modern lifestyles. He received an individual Arts Council Grant award in 2006 and has been nominated for the National Media Museum Bursary Award, shortlisted for the And/or Book Awards as well as the Foto8 Best in Show Award. His personal work is held in collections located as far afield as Australia. Outside of photography he has been a member of the Great Britain Speed Skiing Team (pb 176kmh), has been involved in mountaineering exploits in Europe, Asia and Alaska, and has had success at an elite level as a racing cyclist. Henry has also spoken about his work and activities on Channel 4 (UK), BBC1 (UK) and BBC Radio 4 (UK).

The prize for the winning image will be a Tilopa BC with a large ICU worth in the region of £300 - subject to change due to any last minute supply issues.

Bowmore will also be supporting the festival by mounting the 10 finalists photos and displaying them in the Marquee.
