The AIPP 2013 Ratings

As promised, here's the detailed awards listing for the recent Canon AIPP conference. It was held in Melbourne, contrary to my report yesterday - Saul corrected me this morning, but I am still not totally convinced that Melbourne is not a suburb of Hobart.

Wow, that's a lot of awarding. They must have been exhausted at the end of it all. I hope there were some adult beverages to refresh them after such a spell of hard work. If you'd like to see some of the pictures that garnered such praise, please go to the AIPP website and look at the events section.


Of course I have my own awards to bestow:

1. 2013 Uncle Dick Best Hot Rod Picture Award...Easton Chang

2. 2013 Uncle Dick Best Damp Photographer Award... Darren Jew - he ALWAYS wins this one

3. 2013 Uncle Dick Coolest Photographer's Name Award...Mandarine Montgomery
