Sydney's BridgeClimb launches residency program and photography masterclasses on the Harbour Bridge

BridgeClimb has announced that it will be launching an 'Artists in Residence' initiative this summer, located at none other than the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge.

The BridgeClimb residency program will go from November 2020 to January 2021 and will allow 30 professional photographers to create new work from exclusive locations on top of the Harbour Bridge.

While some photographers have already been invited to take part in the residency program, new applicants are also welcome to apply. 

The photographers who partake in the residency program will also be able to enter the photos they capture into a competition called BridgeClimb’s VIP Insider Photographer Access Awards.

These photographers will be able to submit their best images into one of three catgeories: Architechture, Landscape and Looking Up. There are a range of prizes on offer, including an overnight stay and breakfast at the Park Hyatt Sydney valued at $1,000, $750 worth of printing and photo framing from Created for Life and a $2000 FujiFilm camera and lens pack.

The judges of the competition include Australian television journalist and photography enthusiast Ray Martin, Fujifilm Australia Ambassador Glenn Mckimmon and Getty Images Creative Director James D. Morgan. 

BridgeClimb has also announced that there are opportunities for amateur photographers on offer as well, including the newly-launched BridgeClimb Photography Masterclasses with Glenn McKimmon.
