Samhlaiocht Annual Open Submission Photography Exhibition opens this year’s Festival with an array of photographs displayed in the Samhlaiocht Gallery at the Old Presbytery, Lower Castle Street , and continues until Friday 27th April.
Mr. Michael Diggin, of Michael Diggin Irish Landscape Photography, will adjudicate the submissions and decide on the winning entries. The winning photographs will be professionally mounted and framed and presented to the winning photographers at the close of the exhibition*.
The theme of the Samhlaiocht Easter Arts Festival is STARS and photographers were asked to submit work reflecting or interpreting this theme resulting in a wide diversity of styles and subject matter.
A theme like STARS offers an almost limitless number of possibilities, anything from the obvious astronomy associations to pictures of the stars of screen, stage and sports to any picture that’s lit with light from our nearest star, The Sun!
