The Photo Critic Photo of the Month goes to two photographers, Luke Brouwers with his photo “Trees in the Mist” (Nature Category), and Marethe Grobler with her portrait “Old Soul Young Girl” (People Category). Both photographers receive a discount of R600 for any photography courses with DPC. Their winning images will be automatically considered for the coveted Photo Critic Photo of the Year competition. 

They were not the only winners though since we decided to also include Ken Jennings’ impressionist landscape, “Gansbaai” as a wildcard entry for the Photo Critic Photo of the Year. Congratulations to all three of you!
