Welcome… <strong>the</strong> time has come to reveal<br />
<strong>the</strong> winners <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Digital</strong> <strong>Photographer</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Year</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>2010</strong><br />
This year we’ve had a record number <strong>of</strong> entries, tripling what we received in<br />
last year’s competition!<br />
And <strong>the</strong> standard has been as high as ever, making <strong>the</strong> judging process a very tough<br />
and lengthy one indeed. With entries pinging into my inbox thick and fast from across <strong>the</strong><br />
globe, it’s been a very exciting six months watching all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> photos start stacking up.<br />
Congratulations to all <strong>of</strong> you who entered into this year’s awards. Take a look at who has<br />
triumphed in each category and see who has claimed <strong>the</strong> overall title as <strong>the</strong> <strong>Digital</strong><br />
<strong>Photographer</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Year</strong> <strong>2010</strong>!<br />
