For us here at Invurt, there is one event that caps off the year for us on a massive high – That One Shot. For the third year in a row, the awesome crew at Chasinghosts are putting on this amazing show, with 12 photographers from across Australia going head to head to claim a bunch of rad prizes, as well as to see who had that best shot!
This year, however, they are also joined by twenty artists, both locally and internationally, who have all put their mark on an Uppercup – and guests to the show can purchase these unique items, with the proceeds going towards charity.
“Over the last few years the Australian street art scene has exploded with amazing work from local and international talent. This in turn has inspired hundreds of photographers to find creative ways to capture the evolution the Australian streets. In 2015 Chasing Ghosts are calling on the photographers of Australia to submit their favourite single shot as part of “That One Shot” Australia’s first street art photography award.
In this years competition, photographers from across Australia will go head to head to see who can claim the 2015 title!!
The challenge of this competition is that each photographer was only allowed to submit ONE shot.
A panel of judges will select the winning shots from a short list of the top 12 photos. First and second prize packs and a ‘People’s Choice’ award will be presented to the participants on the night of the event.
There will be amazing prizes up for grabs from Crumpler, Urban Attitude, Boywolf, King Brown Pomade, VNA Magazine and Six Years Later just to name a few!
