Since 2012 Crowe Morgan has held an annual photography competition which in previous years has been open to young Isle of Man residents. Each year the judges have gone through 150+ entries to choose 12 months of the year and a front cover and a back cover for the calendar which is then distributed to a thousand contacts and clients in over 48 countries worldwide.

For the 2020 calendar marking the 20^th anniversary of Crowe Morgan, the Directors decided to make a couple of changes. Firstly the competition would be opened up to Crowe Morgan staff. With over 60 staff in the office we felt it was fair that we feature our home based talent. In addition the calendar includes a picture of all of our staff in October 2020 to celebrate our birthday. Finally with a move towards more environmentally friendly materials the calendar has been redesigned removing any plastic and replacing the old frame with a more environmentally friendly substitute.

Last October the Crowe Morgan team headed for an evening of games and food and were given the opportunity to review the top three entries for every month. The team voted and the final pictures were decided that evening and incorporated into the 2020 calendar.

Now that the team are back in the office it was felt it was a good time to thank the staff that contributed to the calendar by presenting them with framed copies of their winning entries.

This year’s theme is nature, reflecting the time that our team have spent in the natural environment over the last few months while they have been working from home.
