  • Congratulations to the photographer of the winning image chosen by unanimous vote! Using shadow to bring out the subjects against the skyline was a great idea and adds power to this image. The dark rendering prevents the viewer from being distracted by the detail in the foreground and focus on what it might be like on the boundary of the city. The composition is also strong since the silhouette of the two boys repeats in the two buildings and a further echo can be heard in the skyline. Great work!

  • We see a great many night scenes in the i-shot-it competition, and while many are beautiful, this image stands above for its beautiful composition both in terms of use of space and in color.

  • We found the photographers choice to use the tree in the foreground to divide the people in the park into two halves intriguing. Good idea! Now what are the sides?

  • What a beautiful backdrop for a wedding! Interesting choice to center the newly wedded at the bottom with the world expanding forever outward from them. We hope their life together will be like that.
