Photobomb blitz success

Hundreds of images of the region's food experiences exploded across social media on Wednesday.

For three hours the Geographe Bay Tourism Association and the Augusta Margaret River Tourism Association kicked off a photobomb blitz on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Producers and consumers uploaded pictures of everything from beach picnics to fine dining as part of Tourism Australia's Restaurant Australia campaign.

GBTA destination development manager Matt Norton said the blitz was an opportunity to get the region noticed.

"By grabbing people's attention over their lunchbreak, we were able to flood the social media world with mouth-watering images of the regions' best food and wine at just the right time of day," he said.

"It was also fantastic to have so many local producers and eateries getting on board and showcasing their businesses."

A total of 307 Twitter posts, 80 Facebook posts and 240 Instagram pictures were shared with the #restaurantaustralia hashtag for the Blitz period.

Mr Norton urged producers, venues and operators with links to food and wine to upload their experiences to the Restaurant Australia website.

"As the list of contributors grows, we want to encourage as many of our local operators as possible to join us in showing the world that our part of the country is the place to visit when it comes to seasonal produce and top quality dining," he said.
