  • This most wonderful, beautifully spaced and simple composition takes the prize. Well done, this is outstanding work. This kind of perfectionism can only come on the back of enormous competence and sensitivity. We can all sit down and admire the artwork you have made with this heap of rocks. Congratulations for the prize but especially for your level of photography.

  • Low light, low contrast and a lovely damp atmosphere delicately framed amongst the branches and a few leaves, one or two of which make this photograph so beautiful.

  • Taken on a late foggy January morning in Fort Worth, Texas. Shot with Leica M10. Summilux 50 MM lens set wide open at 1.4 It was a perfect morning and setting that produced some very satisfying shots. Thanks for the vote of confidence.

  • Strong lines and a crisp frosty atmosphere really light up this picture in the woods. It is blissfully beautiful to look into.

  • Here is a lovely graphic detail where you have cleverly played with the static and the moving to great effect. Well done indeed.

  • Very moody shot with such a strong anchor point. That tree is mesmerising and as i am locked on to it the clouds seem to move across the sky. Most striking composition and effect.

  • You have created a remarkable softness, the clouds are just magnificent, the kind artists chase after. This is lovely, well done.

  • Well it is such an obvious subject, we all see it, but there are very few on this competition. Nice textures and yes, a nice shape…

  • Incredible place and nicely framed shot. Maybe a softer less contrasted approach would be more comfortable to look at, more real...There are no fixed limits but nature's own beauty is surely the best.
