📸 2025 Rosemary Berrick Photography Competition — Runners-up
We are pleased to share runners-up from the 2025 competition. As always, we are grateful for the additional submissions that continue to showcase the creativity of our IH alumni community, and we look forward to featuring more in upcoming newsletters.
🌊 Moonlift (11 July 2025), Sydney, Australia
Photographer: Davy Cheung (IH ’87–89)
Captured along the Sydney coastline, this striking moment shows a cargo ship crossing the rising full moon, creating the illusion of the moon being lifted from the ocean. What began as a planned sunset shot turned into a rare, fleeting alignment that lasted only seconds — a reminder of how unexpected moments often create the most lasting images.
Davy studied Computer Science while living at IH and now resides in Sydney. He works part-time as a school crossing supervisor and enjoys marathon running, cycling, and bushwalking, with photography remaining a meaningful creative outlet.
🖼️ Frames (23 December 2024), Stanley Market, Hong Kong
Photographer: Alvina Yu (IH ’20)
This image explores layered storytelling — a model portrayed by an artist, and the artist in turn captured by the photographer. Within a single frame, multiple perspectives come together, inviting reflection on how stories are constructed and seen.
Alvina lived at IH while studying Veterinary Biology and is now in her final year of her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in Sydney, balancing study and clinical placements.
