Nikon-Walkley Australian Press Photographer of the Year
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The annual Nikon-Walkley Photographic Awards are the highest honour for Australian press photographers. They represent the pinnacle of achievement and are judged by a panel of senior photographers and picture editors across the industry. The Nikon-Walkley Australian Press Photographer of the Year Award is awarded to the photographer whose body of work is considered the best in the country for that year. It recognises newsworthiness, impact, technical superiority, creativity and originality in news photography.[1] It was first awarded in 1969 as a separate award, but in 2000 merged with the Walkley Awards to create the current prize.
