of the Year Awards 2010 - Digital Photographer

Runner-up
Summer Sun (right)
Photographed by David Pinzer
Shot details:
Canon EOS 5D
Mark II with 50mm
lens at 50mm and
f2, ISO 100
“The picture was made
on a late summer
evening during the
last minutes of sun.
Shot against the low
standing sun, using
a reflector in front to
light up the face”
“Such a captivating portrait. The strong eye
contact is heightened by those gorgeous
catch-lights and the backlighting helps thrust
the model even closer to the viewer. The
intentional clipped highlights work well to
accentuate the feeling of summer.”
Runner-up

Photographed by John Galione
Shot details:
Nikon D50 with
55-200mm lens at
200mm and f5.6,
1/3200sec, ISO 200
“This is a photo of actor
Steven Hartley on
set of the World War
II film Deserter that
I candidly snapped
while he rehearsed his
upcoming scene”
“This may be a still from a movie, but there
is still tension in the face, which makes it so
strong. I want to know what he is thinking, it
is making me work, surely the sign of a great
portrait. Great quality”
