FOUR keen photographers’ love of Noosa’s waterways has won them a prize.
Noosa Council and Unitywater have named four winners in this year’s Connect to Your Creek Week photography competition, with a new online video showcasing the entries launched this week.
Noosa Council environment officer Jan Maddin said over 50 entries were received.
The winning photos were drawn at random and include business colleagues enjoying a drink against a Noosa River backdrop as well as fun times at Lake Cootharaba and beautiful sunsets.
The competition, held during the Healthy Waterways Connect to Your Creek Week, celebrates the many ways people interact with their local waterways.
Unitywater spokeswoman Kate Cash said the competition was a reminder that healthy waterways are vital for healthy communities.
An online video compilation of the entries is on Unitywater’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/unitywater and Unitywater’s YouTube page at www.youtube.com/unitywater
Ms Maddin said winners would enjoy prizes from local businesses including the Discovery Group, Malu Os, Kayak Noosa and Noosa Landcare.
They include a half-day Noosa Everglades tour for two people, a full day on an Electric Boat, an Eco Explore Kayak Tour for two and a $30 native plant voucher.
