Prints of each of the photographs are available for reasonable varying prices and the full light box set ups going for around 500 dollars. 

This is the second year running and already the show has gathered a media buzz around it offering cash prizes to top photos and gaining sponsership from the surf giant Quiksilver among others. 

The work is impressive, the admission is free, flip-flops or skate shoes are totally acceptable foot wear and its located downtown in a brewery. Totally worth popping in and taking a look before the month is out.
