105th Show & Tell competition: "What's happening" - WINNER
Posted: Sun Dec 07, 2008 7:36 pm
It's my own fault. Shoud have known that judging on the entries to a competition with the theme "What's happening?" wasn't going to be easy. Still, what I hoped for did happen: you have interpreted the theme in many different ways and that's great. Variety is the spice of life. In the end my judgement proved to be very personal: those pictures that indeed made me wonder what's happening remained after the first selection. Within that group I judged on composition and expressiveness mainly. So here it goes (BTW all images can and derserve to be clicked on for full size versions):
honourable mentions:
Those who go swinging on a deadly rocket will be put behind bars
Pharaohs visit the container terminus
Bringing the monument alive
London is testing more imaginative Olympic facilities for the 2012 Games
She asks if you want to marry her....
I have always wanted to do this..... to my dentist
Art turns the world upside down
Uniting the real and imagined!
This photo by Jaac ends in the third place:
Brushing your teeth while grandaddy is looking into his crystal ball
The second place is for this photo by Malcom Niekirk:
Coudn't find Spongebob on the ocean floor and heading home disappointedly
But the winner has to be Markus Grompe with this image:
Police think that the shot was fired from the other side of the window, but the window cleaner claims he saw nothing...
A super image in every way!
Thanks everybody for sharing your imagination! It has been an honour to host this edition of the S&T competition.
So it's up to you now Markus for the 106th edition. Good luck!
Best,
Jeroen
