We're delighted to announce the 4th annual Youth Photo Award winner of the 2022 Alex Mao Prize, is Dio student, Sophie Hansen (Year 10), with her gritty portrait of her Dad's working hands welding a new object in his shed titled Create Something New. "My poppa asked me to take a photo of him welding but I'm not much of a people photographer at all, I prefer animals, so when he asked me this I interpreted it as me taking a photo of the sparks flying and the machine. It wasn't until later when I showed him this photo that he said "did you get any of me?" and I suddenly realised I was supposed to be taking photos with him in it!" Sophie has won $1200 cash - plus a print of her winning photo donated by PCL Imaging.
