We called all remote health prac­ti­tion­ers, includ­ing Abo­rig­i­nal and Allied Health Work­ers, whether still work­ing out bush or already returned home, to enter the CRANAplus Mind­ful­ness Pho­tog­ra­phy Competition!

Mind­ful pho­tog­ra­phy is about cap­tur­ing ordi­nary moments in every­day life that encour­age you the view­er to be ​‘in the moment’. No spe­cial equip­ment is required. Mobile phone cam­eras are great because you car­ry them around and are there­fore able to be employed when your eye is caught by the ​‘extra-ordi­nary’. This com­pe­ti­tion is about fos­ter­ing calm­ness and self aware­ness – notic­ing the light, dif­fer­ent nuances of colour and it can also be about see­ing the world differently. 

We received so many fan­tas­tic entries, and have fea­tured the win­ning pho­to below by Anne Tour­nay. The two run­ners up fol­low, by Kara Tem­ple­ton and Andrea Porteous.
