Awards/Achievements

I decided to get my butt in gear again this year and work on some images for the PPOC national image competition, and all of my hard work paid off. I am so happy to have had 3 out of 4 images accepted! 

And here is the press release! So cool!

The 2010 National Image Competition of the Professional Photographers of Canada took

Marlene Palamarek,

a professional photographer from Lacombe, AB,

had 3 images accepted

and exhibited in the National Image Competition, judged prior to the Convention by a panel of Master

Photographers from across Canada. Acceptance in the competition earns the

maker Merits toward several Degrees offered to PPOC members, including the prestigious

Craftsman of Photographic Arts and Master of Photographic Arts. It is also an indication of

the makers’ ability to produce above average images for their clientele.

The competition features entries from across Canada in many different classes, including
