In October 2022, Orms and Canon sent out a call to our creative community in search of some of the most beautiful images of South Africa. We wanted to see our incredible country from your unique perspective: sure enough, you answered our call and didn’t disappoint.

We received thousands of incredible images covering just about every corner of our beautiful country, which made picking just 20 images incredibly difficult. The submissions were assessed by an expert panel of judges, including Canon Product Marketing Manager Roger Machin, Orms Managing Director Jason Ormrod Orms and SJ Artists Founder Shani Judes.

After much deliberation, we would like to present to you the winners of the 2022 Orms x Canon Takes You Places competition:
