WHAT WERE YOU LOOKING FOR WHEN<br />

GOING THROUGH THE ENTRIES, HOW DID YOU<br />

NARROW IT DOWN TO SELECT A WINNER?<br />

What I look for is, of course, the quality of the photo<br />

itself – If it has too many technical issues it grabs my<br />

attention but in the wrong way. I work with a points<br />

system so I’m looking at how the photo is composed,<br />

the creativeness, the foreground, background and<br />

middle ground elements etc. but mainly I’m looking<br />

at the subject – What is this photo? What’s the photo<br />

trying to say? I was really impressed by the creativity of<br />

entries and had narrowed the selection down to a few<br />

before going back to look at the photos over and over<br />

to see which one created the most emotion for me.<br />
