233rd Show & Tell Competition: “Coastal Landscapes” - WINNER

Post Wed May 02, 2012 2:22 am


Wow, I know everybody says judging the winners is hard, but you all made this REALLY HARD by entering so many great photos. Thank you!

First, the Honorable mentions...There were so many great shots, could have been more HMs. Not in any order, but these really exemplified simplicity and disciplined composition in some way that set them apart for me.

thepartaker - outstanding use of contrast both in scale (cliff vs. lighthouse), and light-dark of sky vs. white cliff


mdejong - beautiful color and cloud pattern


drr1531 - great use of long exposure to create the cottony, misty water


raynerj - strong foreground, and well-executed depth of field


davlefabuleux - very nice reflections


3rd place: bartosz - Talk about mood! This is one spooky place, looks like something out of Mordor in Lord of the Rings. Great shot.


2nd place: nickviv - I couldn't find the lighthouse for awhile, but eventually I found it, LOL. This has an almost Zen-like quality of simplicity that I really admire, reminded me of a Japanese rock garden.


1st place: sandiwhi - Great light, beautifully balanced, just the right amount of curve and foreground.


I have tried to both launch and post winners timely to get us back on a regular schedule. Over to you, Sandi!

I'm surprized and so very honored to win this contest, especially with all the great shots all of you entered. Thanks so much! Congrats to all the winners for their great landscapes! I wasn't expecting this at all, so must think on a subject for the next contest a bit. Promise to get a new contest up tomorrow, and keep things rolling along. Thanks again!

Great choice for winners and Hm's. Didn't envy you picking from all those great shots. Well done everyone.
This contest seemed to put the fun back in it, didn't it?

honoured to be amongst such great pics...

I had a great time taking that lighthouse pic.. it was my best day out photographing last year... early start, but well worth it.

Congrats to Sandi for those beautiful colours.

Congrats to the winners. This was a great contest!
Love the winning shot, Sandi, how you pulled the green out of those mossy foreground rocks.
