Photographers from around Australia will display their work at the 23rd Western District National Photographic Exhibition which opens at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Dubbo on Friday 16 July. The Head of Campus at CSU in Dubbo, Dr Beverley Moriarty, said, “Charles Sturt University is delighted to host this Australian Photographic Society approved national exhibition. It is one of 17 approved national exhibitions held around Australia each year. These exhibitions are open to all photographers in Australia who choose to compete to be exhibited. Photographs in each category are assessed by three from a panel of six judges, and the selected images are exhibited. This year there are 100 images from most states in Australia, in several categories; Monochrome Open, Colour Open, Nature, People, Creative, and Photojournalism. Some local photographers with works on display include David Slack-Smith, Geoff Wheeler, and Brian and Lorna White.”
