It was difficult enough to choose a shadowy subject, but capturing or curating four distinct but cohesive images to form a set was possibly the hardest part. The results though, were fabulous and hugely varied.

INDIVIDUAL RESULTS

First was Iain E. Sorry Ian, I don’t yet have your image.

A worthy second place went to Chris Brooks with this topsy-turvy shopping shadow captured in bright sunlight

Third was Sheila with this striking image of a physalis branch and the strong, clear shadow cast on a wall.

 

Fourth place went to Chris R with this pic taken at Chatsworth House on a crisp November morning.

GROUP RESULTS

First: Veronica
Second: Iain E
Third: Sue
Fourth: David Naylor

Here’s Veronica’s group entry: A kaleidoscope of vibrant synergy. Two quite different themes that look good individually, good in pairs, but even better as a  group of four.
Every day’s a school day for me!

 

 

 

 

 

 

October’s competition theme, ‘flowers’ inspired some great entries.

Results:

INDIVIDUAL IMAGES: 1st Dave Hodson, 2nd Ian Evans, 3rd, Simon Curley, 4th David Naylor.

GROUP IMAGES: 1st  Dave Hudson, 2nd Ian Evans, 2rd, Tom, 4th Nigel.

Below are all images I have received (on Dropbox) of the top four.

First in the individuals and in the group competition was Dave Hodson. A stunning Orchid was Dave’s individual entry, and a deserved winner. (Personally I love the astrantia.) The four images work very well as a group.

Here’s David Naylor’s dramatic shot of a coastal ice plant.

Undeterred by the flames rapidly engulfing the building, Tom put passion before safety and stopped just long enough to compose and shoot these lovely images.
