Tullamore Camera Club honours members at annual awards

Tullamore Camera Club held its AGM at the January meeting, which also coincided with the annual photography awards. The Photographer of the Year 2025, as voted by the members, is the highly talented Kieran McEvoy, who produced a wonderful array of photos during the year, covering many genres, including macro, wildlife and landscape photography.

The recipient of Shield for 2025, again voted by the members, was Marie Kearns, for her captivating wildlife and landscape shots.

A new category, Photograph of The Year, was introduced for 2025. Andrea Hunt of Dublin School of Photography was the judge, and she chose Kieran McEvoy's atmospheric shot of The Wolftrap in the Slieve Bloom mountains as the winning shot.

All prizes were presented by Chairperson Cliff Webb.
