First of all, thank you for supporting the 156th Show & Tell Competition. I think we all saw great pictures and it was hard to choose some out of all this many contributions. Thanks a lot for the participation.

Here are my runners up:

I like the light very much, is a very nice picture...



a very natural picture, she looks so happy, which influence also me with a good mood. that is what a great photography should do...excellent!



here we can see a big stories in the eyes, and unfortunately we can not listen to them... all this three pics affect me a lot! Great!





great picture, the differences are so huge...



I like the b&w and the perspective...



great artistic work, great photoshop skills and I guess it must took hours...a bit scary, but surely it should be exactly like this...



3rd place:
very natural portrait, but unfortunately they look in different directions - but on the other hand it makes looking it more exciting...



2nd place:
a bit overexposed but a stunning picture with great colors, a nice bokeh and a very interesting story!



1st place:
It was hard to choose between your "corner portrait" and "portrait of an artist", but finally I choose the artist. Very creative and interesting work, the color-contrast and also the b&w portrait are stunning! CONGRATULATIONS to GP Merfeld!


GOOD LUCK ALL FOR THE NEXT COMPETITION! HAVE FUN!

Enjoy
Lars
