Legacy of Turnix 2025 by photographer Alicia Adamopoulos of Adelaide.
Entry: “Photographed in his loungeroom in Hahndorf, South Australia, on 16 May 2025, 96- year-old
Des Delaine sits quietly with the last three Pointers of his beloved Turnix line. Surrounded by
trophies and memories, the image reveals the deep, unspoken bond between a man and the dogs
who have been his lifelong companions. A breeder and judge devoted to the Pointer since
childhood, Des now faces the end of his breeding journey, capturing a moment of love, loyalty, and
shared history.”

Mavis and Darcy 2025 by photographer Isabella Rogers of Adelaide.
Entry: “This photograph features my nana, Mavis and her dog, Darcy. I spent the day with my nana
and wanted to capture the bond between her and her dog. Darcy is very special to my nana as she
got her after the passing of her partner.”
