Positive winners are grinners

If you called in at The Hub at the Melbourne Town Hall during the Victorian Seniors Festival in October, you no doubt viewed the 24 finalist photographs in the Evergreen Faces photograph exhibition and perhaps also posted your vote for the Telstra Connected Seniors Peoples Choice award via SMS and online.
Congratulations to Melvin Porter who won first prize with his entry ‘Who said it’s all down hill from here?’(pictured above). Second prize was won by Colin Ruehland with ‘It woodn’t go’ and third went to Barbara Ridley with her entry ‘U3A Topcats’. Colin Ruehland’s entry was also a clear favourite in the People’s Choice Award.
