July 2026 Photo Challenge Winner: “A Mesmerising Trip to Mersing”
Our July challenge took us on A Mesmerising Trip to Mersing, and the entries perfectly captured the serene, breathtaking beauty of coastal landscapes and night skies.
Out of all the incredible submissions, five photographs truly stood out to our judges. Among these extraordinary features, one astrophotography shot was chosen as the best out of the five selected.
The best out of the five goes to Joanne Chew
Why It Stood Out: Joanne’s photograph is pure magic. Perfectly framing the glowing core of the Milky Way directly above an illuminated coastal rock archway, this shot captures the true wonder of Mersing’s dark skies with stunning clarity and contrast.
The Five Selected Photos
Congratulations to our top five photographers who showcased the diverse beauty of Mersing:
Joanne Chew – Best out of the five selected! A breathtaking astrophotography shot of the Milky Way stretching over an illuminated rock archway.
Cheong Chee Kheong – A serene, moody landscape capturing mist-shrouded hills and trees along a quiet shoreline.
