Entries into the monthly PSSA Competition:

The Senior entry for February was 'Hannah in black' by JLesley Parolis, and the Junior entry

was 'Elephants Savuti waterhole at dusk' by Tony Edmunds.

PSSA Senior entry and winner Print – Set (Master) Hannah in black by Lesley Parolis (26). The exposure
is very good and can be seen in the true colours of the skin tone. The positioning of the ballerina and the
posture works very well. The crossed hands, diagonal positioning of the ballerina and the almost triangular
shape of the dress on the back of the ballerina are very attractive. The exposure of the black was handled very
well, and although the entire background is black, there is just enough detail in the dress of the ballerina to
anchor the image.
