‘The interest in the Canon AIPP APPAs continues
to grow each year,’ says AIPP Executive Officer,
Peter Myers. ‘Again, the awards have received a
record number of entries from photographers
from around the country. This year more than
850 photographers submitted over 3,000
images in the competitive awards.’
2011 saw the addition of four new categories to
the awards: advertising, fashion, architectural
and fusion*.
‘As the photographic landscape changes, we
need to modify the categories to accommodate
the volumes of work we are seeing in other
areas,’ says APPAs Chairman and Judge, Peter
Eastway.
The Canon AIPP APPAs attract a prize pool of
more than $60,000 in cash and prizes including
the grand prize – $20,000 worth of Canon EOS
professional digital camera equipment.
‘To win the Canon AIPP APPAs is the
highest accolade in Australian professional
photography,’ says Taz Nakamasu, Managing
Director, Canon Australia. ‘Creative
photography is growing strongly in Australia,
with 65% more images taken in the past four
years alone. It is the professionals who lead
the way through their inspiration, passion and
dedication to pushing the boundaries of their
craft.’
The Canon AIPP APPAs are a celebration
of photographic excellence and represent
the pinnacle of Australian professional
photography.
