BARKER’S BEST PHOTO COMPETITION RIVERLAND WINNER ANNOUNCED

BARKER’S BEST PHOTO COMPETITION RIVERLAND WINNER ANNOUNCED

The winners of the 2025 Barker’s Best Photo Competition have now been announced.

Budding amateur photographers from across the electorate were invited to submit entries reflecting this year’s theme, “Barker’s Primary Production - Tears and Triumph”, celebrating the hard work, resilience and achievements of local primary producers.

Over 100 photographs were received, capturing the unique landscapes, people and produce that make Barker one of Australia’s most productive regions.

The most outstanding photograph for the Riverland was submitted by Leanne Ohlmeyer.

Federal Member for Barker Tony Pasin MP met with Leanne to congratulate her and present her prize - a framed copy of her winning photograph and a $250 voucher from a local business of Leanne’s choice.

“Congratulations to Leanne and to all entrants who took part in this year’s competition,” Mr Pasin said.

“The standard of entries was once again exceptional. It’s always inspiring to see Barker’s incredible landscapes, people and industries through the lens of those who live and work here.”

The winning photographs from each region - Limestone Coast, Riverland, Barossa and Murray Mallee - will be showcased on Mr Pasin’s website and featured in a travelling exhibition throughout 2026.
