PHOTOGRAPHIC COMPETITION
Mike explained why Jonathan ’ s photograph was the pick of the bunch . He said : “ When I shoot , I try and create imagery that evokes emotion and this picture absolutely does that for me . It stirs a desire to get out and play golf , although
I would probably rather be taking photographs in that light !”
For the first time , entries into the competition were divided into three categories : Greenkeeping , Landscape and Wildlife .
While Jonathan ’ s photograph won the Landscape category , Joe Simpson of Ipswich Golf Club won the Greenkeeping category and Laura Sayer-Hall of Wallasey Golf Club won the Wildlife category . Category winners all receive a £ 150 shopping voucher .
Twelve images were selected for the BIGGA 2022 desktop calendar , which is distributed with the January edition of Greenkeeper International , the monthly magazine for members of the British & International Golf Greenkeepers Association ( BIGGA ).
