Colletta Calendar 2007
The photo competition, with the theme "Colletta", which took place on August 5 - 6 2006, was a great success. There were 64 entries and the quality of the photos was of a consistently high standard.
An independent jury of three people, consisting of the deputy-mayor of Castelbianco, a professional photographer and Giuseppe Ferreri from the Cultural Association, judged the first three winners, while 450 votes were cast by the public to choose the ten other photos to be inserted in the Colletta Calendar 2007.
The prize-giving took place on Sunday August 6, in the presence of Sig. Marino Finocchio, the mayor of Castelbianco. The winners were as follows:
1st Prize Massimo Vindrola (Commemorative Plate donated by the Comune of Castelbianco)
2nd Prize Ole Wiig (Cup donated by the Cassa Risparmio di Savona, branch of Cisano sul Neva)
3rd Prize Giacomo Mauri ( Cup donated by D'Agvin)
Special Prize (Public Vote) Elisa Montalbano (Plaque donated by the Cultural Association of Colletta di Castelbianco)
Runners-up voted by the public:
Jan Bartel
Ralph Fassey
Jane Hamon
Jo Peters
Nicoletta Canella
Jack Florio
Mike Honour
Clive Best
James Horan
The prize-giving was followed by a party with a grand buffet & music (and also some rain!)
