It’s been a real challenge to get the quintessential Hawke’s Bay summer shot this year.
With Napier recording its wettest January on record, that is reflected in some of the finalists this year - the mud-clogged four-wheeler and the soaking wet Pourerere Beach - but the occasional break in the clouds also delivered some great photography moments.
The winners will be named in the next week. They will win:
1st Place: Canon Eos R10 camera with 18-45mm kit lens, Canon camera bag and 100 6x4 photo prints;
2nd Place: $100 Harvey Norman gift card, 100 6x4 photo prints;
