    Honorable Mention in Nature / Aerial

The phenomenon of specular reflection transformed the bay into a vast natural mirror. On still days, the glassy water surface reflects the sky with near-perfect clarity — clouds and shifting light duplicated so precisely that horizon and heaven seem to merge. The effect creates an ethereal landscape where sea and sky become one, amplifying the sense of space, serenity and wonder that defines Shark Bay.

Julie Kenny honed her photographic skills in analogue-based film photography, utilising 35mm, medium and large format cameras during her tertiary studies. After completing an Advanced Diploma of Applied Science in Photography, Julie furthered her studies at Edith Cowan University, undertaking a Bachelor of Communications and Diploma of Education. More recently, Julie merged her knowledge of the traditional mediums with new technologies, gaining a commercial drone licence. Since this undertaking her work has strongly focused on highlighting the beauty of regional Western Australian locations.
