80-200mm
lens at 200mm
and f8, 1/750sec.

“I’ve seen this shot tried so many times but never
executed as well as this. There are so many little
stories going on in all this windows and balconies, it’s
hard to believe some element of setting up hasn’t
happened but hey well done!”
Runner-up
“During a two year period
(2008-2010) I was shooting
the everyday activities of my
neighbours. The idea was to
show diversity of ordinary life
in an old socialistic building
which I saw as some kind of
prison. In that kind of huge
structure with many people,
even your neighbours are
almost total strangers”

at 17mm and f8,

“Jokulsarlon is an
extraordinary glacier lagoon
that’s home to countless
picture-perfect luminous
blue icebergs. Jokulsarlon
is located one-and-a-half
kilometers inland on
Iceland’s remote
southern coast, between
Hofn and Skaftafell”
“I love the tranquil mood of Clint’s wonderful
landscape. The scene is awesome and the sky
conditions absolutely spot-on for photography and
Clint has made the most of the opportunity. The
reflection is beautifully captured and the composition
is just about perfect”

Photographed by Self Portrait

Fujifilm FinePix S5
Pro with 50mm lens

“Image is a self portrait; I try to
get the style of old paintings.
I used Photoshop to make
an effect of unfinished oil
painting. The image was
made with studio lamps”
“A great example of how photography and Photoshop
can work together to create a truly unique piece of art.
Anna’s work is bold and beautiful”
