Have you ever been in awe of the beautiful photographs of our waterways? 

Now here's another reason not to miss this year’s Sydney International Boat Show. 

Two of Australia’s most recognised and celebrated marine photographers, Andrea Francolini & Christophe Launay have agreed to allow a collection of their exceptional work to be on display at the show. 
 
There is also a competition for the best amateur photographer. The many entries that have been received will be vying for the ‘People’s Choice Award’ & the ‘Judges Award’.

The top images have been selected and will be displayed alongside the photos of the professionals' work. 

Make sure you vote for your favourite photo in the ‘People’s Choice Award’!
The "Judges Award" will be chosen by Andrea Francolini and James Ostinga, Editor of Digital Photography + Design Magazine.

There will be great prizes for the winning entries and the winning images will be published in Digital Photography + Design magazine.
