First of all let me say that each and every photo submitted is simply outstanding! I knew when I setup this challenge that judging would be difficult...and it was! I would like to make them all 1st Place Winners but the rules do not allow for that
So, after going back and forth I have made my decisions. Since all are outstanding photos I used my "eye appeal" judgement in selecting the winners. OhLook's Butts wonderfully illustrates how a G-Series camera can achieve both Micro and shallow depth of field in a well composed shot!
M_Six's Bridges are just a breath taking example of landscape photography!
Stiga's beautiful landscape Jupiter Artland is near perfect marred only by the stray photographer on the left side!
tcphoto1's lovely Courthouse is a marvelous example capturing old architecture!
Logan7's Northern Lights are a wonderful example of a long exposure (20 seconds) to achieve stunning results!
So, I have ranked them as follows:
1st Place - M_Six
2nd Place - Stiga
3rd Place - Logan7
Over to you M_Six for this week's contest
