THE annual Geelong calendar is being distributed to more than 100,000 homes this month.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Geelong calendar competition attracted more than 1,100 entries, with photographer Luke David winning the coveted cover image for his shot from Flinders Peak in the You Yangs.<\/p>\n

Mr David \u2013 who was also featured in the 2017 Geelong calendar \u2013 said he had been visiting Geelong since he was a child to stay with his grandparents.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an adult I still enjoy visiting family in Geelong and the Bellarine and spending time with my camera rediscovering the beauty of the area,\u201d he said.
\n\u201cI know that the residents of the city will get a sense of this beauty when they receive their calendar full of so many amazing images.\u201d<\/p>\n

Geelong Gallery director Jason Smith selected Mr David\u2019s photo as the cover image and praised the entries from contributing photographers as \u201csimply outstanding\u201d.<\/p>\n

He also congratulated the winning artists for their technical and conceptual talent behind the lens.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was easy to see that each photographer\u2019s passion for and vision of their subject profoundly influenced their final formal compositions and feeling for light and colour.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs always, it is terribly uneasy to select just one winner, but Luke David\u2019s image of the You Yangs, a landscape I love, captivated me.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2020 calendar features photographs of modern architecture, local historic sites, the natural environment, wildlife, scenic horizons and celebratory events.<\/p>\n

Extra copies of the calendar can be collected at City of Greater Geelong customer service centres. For more information, head to geelongaustralia.com.au\/calendar<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
