2021 Roundup

With all of this pandemic and the world ending on its knees, I am very grateful for my photography journey during this year.

The year started with a Solo Exhibition sponsored by Avantech Malta at their premises. I was also chosen by Therese Debono to participate in the TNAX Exhibition organised by VCA Malta.

I had published work and had been interviewed in magazines, podcasts, and websites in America, Asia, Australia, and Europe.

I also judged photography competitions, gave talks on photography and did a couple of masterclasses and courses, mainly for the Malta Photographic Society, which I am very proud of.

I have been invited on TV shows to talk about my work and I was also honoured to be chosen to go and photograph a kickboxing event in Sicily.

I also managed to grab several awards, but the last award was a Gold Medal in Monochrome in the Malta Photographic Society's 56th National Competition & Exhibition of Photography 2021, which is my most precious one.

I would like to thank the Malta Photographic Society Exco for their support and hard work.

Now I welcome 2022 and I am looking forward to what it brings with it. It is hard to repeat the successes of 2021, but I am sure I will do my best to continue working hard and also share my knowledge with others.

I can already say that I will be starting the year with some courses and a talk and will also be doing a Solo Exhibition, so stay tuned for more news.
